Incubator & Accelerator
Early applications
From an idea to a company that keeps its purpose.
One programme, two stages. The incubator takes a founder from idea to working product. The accelerator takes that product to scale.
The category
One category. Two incubators.
Longevity here means technology that extends healthy human life. Both incubators are being built now, and either can be backed on its own.
Quantum research
Sensing for next-generation medical diagnostics, secure communication, and new materials.
Sound technology
Neuroacoustics for focus, breath and sleep, and early research into sound and consciousness.
Long horizons
Results in this field take a decade. The capital and the programme are built for that.
Clinical rigour
A steward for clinical research and an institute beside the programme, from day one.
Inner work
Founders who are rested and present build better companies. Focus, recovery and sleep are part of the method.
A place like this
Ocean, sleep, good food and recovery. A longevity company should be built somewhere that lives it.
The programme
Two things that are hard to buy: time, and people who have done it before.

Tell us what you want to build and what is in your way. We reply within two working days.
-
Incubate
From idea to working product, inside the building, with mentors and the research institute beside you.
-
Accelerate
From product to scale: the first customers, the right partners, and capital where the fund invests.
-
Stay
You do not have to leave when the programme ends. The building and the community stay.
- Founders receive
- Workspace, mentorship, introductions, and capital where the fund invests.
- Training
- Focus, recovery and decision making under pressure, drawn from Norwegian special forces practice.
- Programme length
- Not fixed yet. A small resident cohort runs first, before the building opens.
- Certification
- Inside the Ericeira Business Factory accelerator now. Pursuing IAPMEI certification as an incubator.
- Ownership
- Your company keeps its own cap table. If you want steward ownership, we help you set it up with AGPC Investments, our implementing partner.
Early applications For the first cohort.
How the model is different
What others do, and what we do.
Incubator & Accelerator
Takes equity, optimises for the next round, and ends. The founder leaves with the programme.
A programme inside a building the founder can stay in, training focus and recovery alongside the product.
Coworking operator
Sells desks. Community is a side effect of the floor plan.
Members give a share of their skills to Hub projects. Community is the point, not a side effect.
Venture fund
Control follows capital. At exit, the mission is whatever the majority owner decides.
Control stays with stewards. Capital is repaid a fair multiple, and then its claim ends.
Tell us what you are building.
Early applications for the first cohort are open. A working prototype counts for more than a deck.
