CONNECT | GROW | INNOVATE

NABI (Northern Alberta Business Incubator) is a nonprofit business incubator created by the City of St. Albert in 1989 to provide entrepreneurs and small businesses with mentorship and support to launch, grow and establish and thereby cultivate entrepreneurship. NABI’s unique sector-agnostic incubator serves as a ‘growth’ catalyst for businesses that create/provide technological innovations, business services (legal, accounting, financing, IT, etc.), health and wellness products/services, renewable and non-renewable products/services, retail, engineering, and manufacturing.

The Health Innovation Hub is the University of Alberta’s lead life sciences incubator for innovators and entrepreneurs working towards better human health outcomes. Managed by API, HIH programming includes comprehensive consulting support to allow ventures to build, test, validate, and grow. The Health Innovation Hub (HIH) acts as a catalyst for start-ups looking to navigate their ideas along the complex regulatory and commercialization pathway faced by life sciences companies.
