Are Gjellan’s research while affiliated with Norwegian University of Science and Technology and other places

The point of departure is a temporary university incubator at a European technological university. These incubation programmes are held quarterly, and comprise six parallel developing teams nurturing and qualifying different business ideas into viable business plans. The programme has been successful, in technological, commercial and learning terms. Out of 102 business ideas, at least 57 successful new technology based firms have been created from the incubation programme, and more than 400 students have received significant practical real life hands-on start-up experiences, which have resulted in increased start-up competence and motivation.
