About the project:
Innovation Centre Kosovo (ICK) was a result of an earlier preliminary study in which BOOST defined business fields, methods and areas for action effort in Kosovo with development possibilities. ICK supports entrepreneurship, innovation and commercially based business development, with a focus on ICT companies with a growth potential.

The center includes an incubator with offices for business start-ups, trainings, and rooms for meetings and events.

– Location and infrastructure, business plan, establish foundation as founder, business development, anti-corruption, etc.
– Set up Incubator and grants for start – ups.

Impact:
During the period BOOST managed the ICK (June 2012 – June 2014) there were 53 teams in the incubator. Approximately 594 people participated in trainings and 4500 at the events hosted at the center.

ICK has become Kosovo’s main IT incubator and hub for innovation and entrepreneurship in the IT sector.
