SBC’s Lab Hotel has been extremely helpful to us. It enabled us
to work from a commercial, rather than university, setting
which helped us to present our company as a professional
entity and increased our understanding of an Incubator
facility. The lab and offices are well equipped and it has been
helpful to be able to interact with others in the cohort.
