Home for Startups, Entrepreneurs & Innovators
CoMotion Labs provides a multi-industry incubation environment for early-stage startups. We welcome startups from both inside and outside the UW community. From critical infrastructure to learning, mentoring, and networking, CoMotion Labs nurtures and enables success. And we help them grow without taking equity. Our labs operate in three incubators on the UW Seattle campus, each focusing on a particular industry sector: life sciences and hardware in Fluke Hall, and technology in Startup Hall.
Choose from our multi-purpose 100-person capacity event space, perfect for presentations and networking events, or our Wayback Lounge for smaller gatherings.
Business is all about relationships. At CoMotion Labs, you’ll find resources for your startup when your idea is in the pre-seed stage, and along the journey as you scale up. Here, you’ll find plenty of office space, meeting rooms, and chemistry, biology, and engineering resources, as well as a full complement of tools and equipment necessary for prototyping and development.
Our services set us apart. As part of the University of Washington, you’ll have access to thousands of first-rate minds doing cutting-edge research in hundreds of fields. We’ll plug you into Seattle’s thriving innovation community through our CoMotion Advisory Network and free workshops on everything from customer development to financing.
Since we operate on a sustainability model, instead of a profit model, our rates are affordable, so you can hire more staff. Plus, when you join CoMotion Labs, you keep your intellectual property and equity.
CoMotion Labs startups represent multiple industries such as IT, Engineering, Clean Tech and AR/VR. Our startups range from pre-seed to Series A.
Anyone interested in startup creation is encouraged to attend our Fundamentals for Startups lecture series.
