NTU Innovation Port

The NTU Innovation Port – a one-stop centre for all things innovation-related. 

With locations at both the North and South Spines of the University’s main campus, the NTU Innovation Port serves as a common space for the NTU community to discuss start-up and innovation ideas. It also supports industry partners looking to collaborate or license technologies.

NTU I&E welcomes the NTU community and our external partners to leverage these new resources to accelerate their I&E journey.

The Innovation Port at Gaia is a one-stop I&E space designed specifically for students, and by students. Located at Gaia, this purpose-built Port offers a dedicated 420-square metre area for initiatives that enhance students' I&E engagement and vibrancy on campus. It serves as a meeting place for like-minded students, student entrepreneurs, alumni entrepreneurs, and the entire NTU community, offering enriching exposure to the I&E ecosystem both on campus and beyond.

Looking towards the future, to further support enterprising pathways and accelerate the growth of NTU-affiliated spin-offs and start-ups, NTU I&E is planning a new incubation facility designed to provide comprehensive support for early-stage ventures. The new facility, spanning multiple floors, will offer dedicated co-working spaces for both incorporated and pre-incorporated spin-offs and start-ups emerging from NTU. These spaces will be thoughtfully designed to foster serendipitous encounters, encourage collaboration, and cultivate a strong sense of community among incubates. In addition to co-working spaces, the facility will also house state-of-the-art shared facilities, including meeting rooms, event spaces, recharge zones, and other communal areas. These amenities will cater to the diverse needs of incubates, providing them with the resources and infrastructure necessary to connect, collaborate and thrive.

A new Makerspace will be slated for launch by the end of the first quarter of 2024. Located at The Arc, The Makerspace will occupy the existing Reading Room to be a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) Atelier supporting conceptualisation, development and validation of NTU's inventions from prototype to market.

By linking aspiring entrepreneurs to NTU's diverse range of facilities and expertise, this space will empower cross-field research, development, testing and validation for those seeking to bring their ideas to life.
