Do you accept all types of company ?

Greenbizz is an incubator dedicated to the sustainable economy. Each company that takes up an office or a workshop at Greenbizz is assessed on the sustainable aspect of the project. To do this, a committee selects the various projects on the basis of the following five criteria:
Consistency with Greenbizz’ mission in the sustainable and circular economy.
The financial soundness based on the business plan or annual accounts.
The level of innovation (technological or business) or differentiation.
The age of the company or project.
The job creation potentiel.

If your project meets most of these criteria, don’t hesitate to contact us!

Companies hosted in the coworking space do not have to go through a selection committee.
