1.1 BACKGROUNDInearly2013,ProjectFuturecommissionedtheLeibniz Institute forRegionalDevelop

ment and Structural Planning to conduct research together with the Geography De

partment at the HumboldtUniversitt zu Berlin to provide an overview of the phe

nomenon of innovation and creative labs. The data on the Berlin labs was gathered

throughdesktopresearch,withfollowuptelephoneinterviewsasneededtoconfirmor

supplement the information collected. In Berlin, there is a demand for venues and

roomsfacilitatingthesenewformsofeconomicactivity,aswellasfortheopenspaces

neededtotestbusinessmodelsandexperimentwith ideas.Berlin isconnectedwitha

certainlifestyle(theplacetobe),aprofilewhichisalsoperceivedinternationally.The

citys image, informedby itsurbanambience,culturalandcreative scene,workshops,

studios,and freespaces,aswellasthechancetotryoutnew formsofworkhere,at

Today, fewer innovationsaredeveloped inclosed laboratories. Instead, it is interdisci

include,

Ulti

mately, Berlin is clearly developing into a location where new models for innovative

spacescanbebornandtested,andevenexportedtoother locationsas isapparent,

forexample,intheopeningofafurtherUFALabsinCologne.

include,ontheonehand,hackerspaces,markedbytheirworkshopcharacterandoften

INCUBATORSANDACCELERATORS

Inincubatorsandaccelerators,companiesandinvestorstestanddevelopnewbusiness

modelsand ideas (e.g. inthegrowthmarketsofdigitaltechnologies)and,atthesame

time,gainaccesstotalented foundersandentrepreneurs. Incubatorsandaccelerators

foster the establishment and development of creative and innovative startups. Thestartups are usually already supported in the early stage of the innovation cycle (in

some cases, even in the seed and early stage phase). In this way, investors or major

companiessecureaccess toskilledandentrepreneurialminded talents from theperti

nent business fields and technological sectors. Here, one can differentiate between

thesesubtypes:

Incubators furnish selected startups and teams with seed capital, expertise(personalmentoringandcoachingfromexperts),networkaccessandinfrastruc

Companybuilders (usuallyangelandventurecapital investors)supportor leadentrepreneursandassembled teams toestablishdedicated startups from the

companysownideas.RocketInternetandTeamEurope,whichpartiallycopied

already existing business models, are examples of this entrepreneur in com

work spaces (coworking space) of the company builder (onsite incubator).
