Spin-offs & Entrepreneurship
Our aim is to create the right climate for new partnerships that will increase the impact of Leiden-based research. In practice, that means we are closely involved with start-ups and spin-offs, which in many cases remain partners with the research base.
There is no standard way of working: we set up a customized program for every start-up or spin-off idea and for each new business.
We look forward to hearing your idea.
If you are working on a start-up or spin-off and you think that Luris can help you move forward, get in touch with our Business Development Team today. They are keen to help you get started.
Your research has led to new findings that could improve the world—and that’s worth protecting. Whether you’ve uncovered a promising new technology or developed a solution with real-world application, Luris is here to support you in every step of your entrepreneurial journey.
Have you recently graduated and do you dream of a career as an entrepreneur? Did you find a gap in the market and are you looking for ways to exploit it? Do you have a creative, innovative idea for solving a problem, but need help developing it into a full business plan?
Luris supports innovators through ELF Pre-seed, which provides resources, mentoring, and networks to develop ideas into business plans, and UNIIQ, a €22 million fund helping Zuid-Holland entrepreneurs bring scientific innovations to market.
