History

Due to the expansion of the incubator at the Zwijnaarde science park in Zwijnaarde a new location was needed, which would become the Greenbridge-incubator. Together with the University of Ghent several organisations participated in the new incubator, such as the Katholieke Hogeschool Brugge-Oostende, POM West-Vlaanderen, Plassendale nv. and ADMB. In addition the project received support of the European Community ('5B Phasing out EFRO') and the Flemish Community.
