Alongside open work and study spaces, an innovation lab, conference rooms and event arenas, HOPE also provides opportunities for electronics companies to scale up and start their first production in collaboration with the property owner, FastPartner.

Here, you become part of an environment where Norrköping Science Park, LEAD, Linköping University and RISE (Research Institutes of Sweden) are active, giving you access to the networks, support and activities we collectively offer. A complete and systematic value chain, from research and spinouts to large-scale industry, that is one of the fastest in the world at transforming research results into thriving companies.

A platform for collaboration

Today, more than 20 companies have emerged from the world-leading research conducted at the Laboratory of Organic Electronics (LOE) at Linköping University’s Campus Norrköping.

Many of the companies born from the research at LOE have received support from the entrepreneurship program at LEAD, one of Sweden’s top incubators for tech startups.

During and beyond the incubator stage, companies have access to Norrköping Science Park, offering valuable networking and matchmaking opportunities, access to targeted projects, and a platform for continued growth.
