The digital society is changing rapidly:
Cyberattacks, AI transformation, hybrid infrastructure threats, and increasing data dependency are placing new demands on innovation.

The SIBB Incubator supports early-stage startups that:

Strengthening cyber resilience

Important: You don’t have to be a startup focused solely on cybersecurity or AI. We’re looking for bold founders who want to bring technologies to market safely and responsibly.
