A greenhouse for entrepreneurs
One of A house’s main missions is to encourage meetings. With everyday tools, ranging from a single shared coffee machine to membership activities, we promote and strengthen our community. Through new collaborations, businesses and freelancers get the best conditions to develop and grow.
From day one, our concrete building has caused a stir in Östermalm. It has always been a place for innovation, where ideas are both hatched and developed into finished products. When A house Ark moved in, we wanted to create a meeting place for creative companies to grow in, both for startups that were bubbling in the establishment phase and for full-grown scale-up companies.
Inbukators at A house Ark
Thanks to our members Sting and former members SSE Business Labs, we have been the place where several success stories were written. As incubators, they help companies and entrepreneurs with coaching, capital and networks. Sting has supported over 400 companies in tech, AI, climate and health, with both business support and a community.
Sting – the largest ecosystem for startups in the Nordics
“At Sting, we help startups through coaching, capital and networks. We offer tailored support depending on where the company is-from early stage ideas to fast-growing scaleups. Our startups get access to experienced business coaches, investor networks, community and practical tools to scale their business. We run both incubator and accelerator programs and have helped over 400 startups take the next step.”
What is A house for you?
“The place to be! It’s a gathering place for like-minded souls, which is evident the second you step inside the door. Ideas are bubbling in the air and the tea is boosted with entrepreneurship.”
