Virtual incubation
Funds usually lack during the early stages of operation of spin-off and start-up companies founded in the environment of the university. Tender resources are typically available for funding research and development activities, however the financial opportunities are limited for the daily operation of the company and its business management. The basic purpose of business incubation is to accelerate the expanding phase of business enterprises and to make innovation processes more effective. Incubators provide business development services and also provide an opportunity to expand the business network for enterprises.
The Technology Transfer Center performs business services within the framework of virtual incubation (service incubation), thus relocation to the university area is not a condition of requiring the service. Main services for the spin-off companies of the university provided by TTO are the following:
