The success of the case is characterized by strong commitment, the courage to select, openness and trust, organic growth and enthusiasm
The development has resulted in the University multiplying its research funding for projects with industry, The Gothia Business Incubator becoming one of the leading Swedish incubators and the science park growing into the regions third biggest workplace in trade and industry and one of the 10 largest science parks in Sweden.
