CorkBIC

Our Innovation centre is hosted in the NSC-Campus. The NSC Campus is a landmark development in the context of Ireland and the EU.

The project is a privately led venture via a public private partnership. The NSC offers World Class Third Generation Offices & Broadband Infrastructure.

The fundamental thrust is to create a global footprint for knowledge based
ventures through using innovative networking technologies.

The Master Plan is for 500,000 sq ft of intelligent wired buildings in an innovative crescent or arc facing south and west.

This incorporates Block One (the flagship central services facility) and The Campus including linked buildings and multistorey car park.

Block One, the anchor facility of 54,000 sq ft , is now complete and is part occupied by tenants such as Horizon Technology Group and the Cork BIC.

A key element of the success of an Incubation Centre is the value-add it brings to its tenants.

With this in mind the manager works on the identification of "Client" needs and arranges support / development programs including:

• Training Programs
• Informational Seminars
• Networking Opportunities
• Access to professional services - such as help in preparing Business Plans, consultancy on certain issues etc.
• Awareness of Business Development Issues
• Social Events!
• In addition to these, all of the resources of the Cork BIC will be available to the Innovation Centre, placing a wealth of business and industry experience at the hands of the start-up companies.
