How much do they invest?

Ipark invest around 3-6 million NOK every year into the incubator businesses. They normally take an active ownership in your business from the early phase, so they can contribute with knowledge, a large network and with collecting capital. They offer office space, workshops and a social arena with many startup businesses. In addition to this, they also have an entrepreneur trainee program.
