University Enterprise Laboratories Inc

Our Minnesota startup ecosystem is growing!  

University Enterprise Laboratories (UEL) was founded in 2005 as an incubator in St. Paul for early-stage startups needing lab space.  We now have 45 companies (and many more graduates!) and are actively working to help them succeed.  

As part of our commitment to the startup community, we feature food from small local businesses and startups at all of our events.  

Sponsor a Startup was created to help us bring even more of these local entrepreneurs to our events - and to showcase their (incredible) products at our UEL Barbecue on July 17, 2019. Thank you for supporting our Minnesota startup community through your donation to UEL!

University Enterprise Laboratories is an independent, non-profit incubator for early-stage ventures in life sciences, biotech, food / agriculture, and medical health.  It is located in the growing Towerside Innovation District, off the Green Line, between Minneapolis and St. Paul.
