Entrepreneurship
o Individuals, on their own, in teams, within and outside existing organizations
o Create new economic opportunities new products, new production methods, new organizational schemes and new product-market combinations
o Introduce ideas in the market o Face uncertainty and other obstacles o Making decisions o Use of resources and institutions o New firms/startups enhance knowledge spillover(s) o New and small firms grow more on average than large existing firms >
regional economic growth potential
Belgium – some key facts Federal state
o 3 regions: Flanders - Brussels (capital district) – Wallonia
o founding member of EU | member of EURO-zone
o highly open economy > exports
o knowledge based economy <> no natural resources
o 98% of all firms are small business (EU-parameters)
o 80% of these are family owned SB
o best known large Firm : AB INBEV (beer)
Belgium – some key facts National system of innovation
o Not one national sytem of innovation BUT REGIONAL systems of innovation (Flanders – Wallonia – Brussels)
o HOWEVER: more convergence than divergence
o Technology clusters: micro-electronics - biotech/life sciences - aerospace (Airbus, F16) - green energy
o Many incubator/science parks
o Knowledge based institutions (universities, university colleges, knowledge clusters)
Belgium – some key facts Example: Biotech Startups
o Topresearch > University spin-offs OR company spin-outs
o Rated top in Europe
o Strategic alliances | strategic Technology partnerships / licensing agreements with Big Pharma
o Milistone payments | patents / intellectual property rights
o Possible takeovers by / mergers with Big Pharma
o Lack of long term funding to remain independent
o 7 young biotech firms listed on Euronext Brussels
Belgium – some key facts Biotech Firms
Belgium – some key facts
FLANDERS o University departments/science parks of Leuven, Ghent & Brussels o FlandersBio (“umbrella” lobbying organization) o Flanders Institute for Biotechnology (biotech research platform) o Regional Investment Company of Flanders (seed finance & growth capital)
o Biotech Fund Flanders (venture capital) o Life Sciences Research Partners (private investment company) o Institute for the promotion of Innovation by Science & Technology o Flanders Investment and Trade o University of Leuven Research and Development (tech transfer)
Belgium – some key facts
WALLONIA o University departments/science parks of Liège, Louvain-La-Neuve, e.a. o Regional Investment Company of Wallonia (seed finance & venture capital) o Life Sciences Research Partners (private investment company) o Wallonia Biotech (bio-incubator) o Office for Foreign Investors o Welbio (Walloon Excellence in Life Sciences and Biotechnology)
Belgium is struggling with an “innovation paradox” While we foster a diversity of knowledge based institutions, we do not succeed enough in commercializing this knowledge base

What
The Creative Incubator is a platform which brings together the innovative power of businesses, government, knowledge institutions, the creative industries and the social sector. The Creative Incubator’s goal is to create new and sustainable economic and societal development based on the urgent and complex questions that our society faces. The involvement of the creative industries will help the incubator to break with conventional solutions and to come up with creative, sustainable alternatives with both economic and societal benefits
Bring young, ambitious & creative top talents together with experienced professionals to work on innovative & creative masterprojects Analyze bottlenecks and map opportunities Create open & creative mindset that leads to visualisation of ideas Understand real life business cases Lead to creative startups and entrepreneurial drive Regional cooperation & development
Creative Incubator will allow to
Who
The initiative will be started by Creazy (creative innovation company) and private partner(s) Creazy and partner(s) are now looking for other partners who can actively support the Creative Incubator Possible future partners will be found within the traditional triple helix as well as in public sectors (healthcare, mobility, environment) Creazy calls this group the quadruple helix The Flanders District of Creativity supports the idea of starting Creative Incubators
Key (Network) partners
How
Central to the concept of the Creative Incubator is the Creative Innovation Lab, from which creative and sustainable solutions will emerge. Ideas, concepts and/or research questions will follow a 6-month path through the innovation lab. This path involves 4 steps:
o BrainBath o Ingredients Room o Bubbling Zone o Spin out/off class
The initial ideas and concepts grow into start-ups as they progress through the four phases of the Creative Innovation Lab. This process is strongly supported by specific courses at the supporting universities and university colleges and by the partnering knowledge institutions.
How
After the 6-month period, the most promising start-ups are spun-out and given further support in the Incubator. Ideas that did not lead to a promising start-up receive no further support. However, these ideas will be stored on an open innovation platform, where they can be picked up by anyone who has good ideas about ways to develop them further. The Creative Incubator has several sources for initial ideas and concepts:
o Entrepreneurs can come to the Incubator with an idea o Partner companies can spin-out some of their unused ideas to the
Incubator o Government, society and non-profit organisations can put research
questions into the Incubator
Selection / Assessment
Professional assessments, used within real life selection procedures Personality and behavior with respect to professional / entrepreneurial future entrepreneurial competencies Worldwide distribution of “The Future Project”

Financing
The Creative Incubator needs some start-up funding for the first two to three years The founding fathers of the Creative Incubator are looking for financial support from a European project and/or Flanders regional funds After the initial period, the Creative Incubator’s business model should be financially sustainable via contributions from the partner institutions, companies and (for a very small amount) from participating students/entrepreneurs
