The University of Bejaia was created in 1983 as a National Institute of Higher Education then promoted to a University Center in 1992 and finally to be erected into a University in 1998.

Beyond its mission to ensure quality education for its students, the University of Bejaia works to train responsible citizens who are concerned about the environmental, social and ethical consequences of their actions and decisions.

The Bejaia University incubator opens up support, integrating sustainable development approaches, to innovative, profitable and sustainable projects. These projects are supported for the creation of an economic and social startup. In addition to the support service, the incubator welcomes incubates within its structure, by providing them with a workspace - office services - and a research space - prototyping services.

The diversity of the projects of the Bejaia university incubator involves a transversality of the profiles of the beneficiaries, in particular:

● students, teachers or ATS who seek to launch and develop a new innovative product or service by integrating a reflection of sustainable development;
● entrepreneurs or companies wishing to develop a new product or service on the basis of sustainable development thinking integrated into their design and implementation;
● associations and communities wishing to meet a local need by setting up a program combining the skills of the incubator and local partners.
