Moravian-Silesian Innovation Centre

Presentation of the Moravian-Silesian Innovation Centre and its purpose

  

The Moravian-Silesian Innovation Centre was established on 1 July 2017 by transforming the Ostrava Science and Technology Park, founded by the City of Ostrava in 1997. 

The aim of MSIC is to provide start-up entrepreneurs and companies in the region with effective support and bring more growing and export-oriented companies to the region, invest in innovation, industrial research and development, and ensure a more intimate link between the business environment and the academic sector.

The MSIC is based at the Science and Technology Park (STP) complex, which is situated on the western edge of Ostrava, right next to the VŠB-Technical University of Ostrava and close to the I/11 Ostrava–Opava main road.

It includes several multifunctional buildings containing office space and technical facilities, with nearly 11,0000 m2 of space available for lease

The complex contains 61 entities – from the starting entrepreneurs with a potential of rapid growth to the development centres of global brands (e.g. Porsche Engineering, HELLA Autotechnik, Invent Medical Group, CGI IT Czech Republic s.r.o., Tesla Medica etc.).

In 2018, shared laboratories for the experimental development and application of new technologies were created in the complex.

There are also 3 private investors (Elcom, a.s., Ingeteam, a.s., VAE Prosys, s.r.o.) in the complex.
