Our founders

The Academic Incubators of Entrepreneurship (AIP) is the biggest entrepreneurial initiative of the last years. The project is realized by the AIE Foundation on the initiative of the Student Forum of Business Centre Club. Its aim is to promote entrepreneurship among young people and allow them to establish their own firms with the minimal financial outlays. During the first (and most difficult) months the costs of conducting business includes services like registering fees, social insurance, office renting, settlements, accountancy and legal advices.

However, a potential beneficiary doesn't have to pay for any of them as all the costs and the risk connected with setting up a firm are borne by the Foundation.

Academic Incubators of Entrepreneurship are established at the best Polish universities. They use knowledge both of the research personnel of a particular university and of the experts in the field of economics from the biggest employers' organization in Poland – the Business Centre Club. Currently, at the best Polish universities there are 40 Academic Incubators of Entrepreneurship collaborating with each other. Such a fusion of theory and practice translates into the success of the subjects taking part in the project. On the other hand, acting as a part of an incubator enables young people to face the economic reality because it helps to overcome complex procedures and to surmount bureaucratic barriers.

After the time of incubation newly-established firms can act in normal economic conditions using the experience offered by the incubator as well as the essential legal and economic knowledge.

The honourable patronage over Academic Incubators of Entrepreneurship is held by the Ministry of Economy of the Republic of Poland and Business Centre Club, the most-known polish chamber of entrepreneurs.
