We are a start-up accelerator founded through a partnership between BLKB, the largest Bank in the Basel area and Launchpad, a global private equity firm. We seek the most promising innovative companies and help them grow through our accelerator programs, where we offer hands-on mentoring, specialized services, and access to funding. We run our accelerator programs in a state-of-the-art 4,000 m² innovation hub and co-working space called The 5th Floor in Muttenz.  InQbator works closely with the “100 fürs Baselbiet” (1004BB) program which is an initiative by BLKB, FHNW, and Baselland to offer financing to innovative SMEs and startups in the region for their next stage of growth. We offer mentorship and business services to selected 1004BB winners and also prepare companies in our program to stand their best chance at securing the 1004BB financing.
