The incubator, supported by the UK Space Agency and Scottish Enterprise, will support four companies for an incubation period of one year.
Throughout the incubation period, companies will benefit from unparalleled business support and access to a wide business network through SoXSA, as well as a support package worth in excess of £15,000 including:
- Desk space @ Tontine
- Accelerator programme
- Attendance at the UK Space Conference (September 2019)
- Attendance at DATA.SPACE Conference (June 2020)
- Attendance at Industry event of choice
- Company Innovation voucher
The programme is open to start-up or existing companies that can demonstrate high-growth potential.
To apply for the programme, your company has to demonstrate the use of space technology in your business model which could something as simple as location-based services on an app.
Steve Greenland, Craft Prospect, said: “The UKSA incubation space at the Tontine has been a fantastic first step by providing both a base to establish our business and entrepreneurial training.
“In our first year, the company has doubled in employee headcount and has since secured a near 200 per cent increase in turnover for year two providing us with significant opportunities for sustainable further growth.”
