MultiPark Innovation supports the transformation of scientific discoveries into innovations that benefit patients and society. Commercializing inventions generated by research in Multipark, is one of MultiPark’s missions, also reflecting the Swedish Government’s intention to promote Innovation as the third mission of universities alongside research and education.

Since 2011, Multipark has continuously supported promising projects with commercial potential. While other government or private grants, offers funding later in the innovation process, MultiPark’s innovation grants intend to provide high-risk pre-seed funding at an early stage, to help researchers take the first crucial steps in the innovation process, such as protecting intellectual property, filing patents, or developing proof-of-concept data.

We support projects across the full research spectrum, including:

  • Therapeutics and small molecules
  • Biologics
  • Diagnostic or clinical methods
  • Algorithms and protocols
  • Enabling technologies

Beyond funding, we offer mentorship and guidance on the innovation journey, helping researchers explore commercialization opportunities and collaborate with industry or investors.
