8 million Euros turnover for the Start-ups settled in the PRUAB
The UAB research park (PRUAB), which the Barcelona Synchrotron Park works with, hosted in 2014 22 start-up companies in its iconic Eureka building, most of them created from research projects carried out at the UAB university. These companies reached together last year 8 million Euros turnover, 1 million more than in 2013.
 
Half these companies got 1.6 million Euros external support from different private companies and state grants and loans. The major incentives were the Torres Quevado grants and the state Retos-Colaboración loans, which are both managed by the PRUAB.
 
The number of new start-up companies created last year is similar to that of previous years with 7 new creations: AEInnova, Crowdmobile, Futurecrome, Applied Nanoparticles, Pure Inspiration, Pragmatic Diagnostics and Devicare.
