About Partnerhuset

Part of Universitetsbyen in Aarhus

Partnerhuset is part of Universitetsbyen, an area in the heart of Aarhus where knowledge, innovation and collaboration meet. The building is created as a community for companies, organizations and entrepreneurs who want to be close to the research environments and strong networks around Aarhus University.

Partnerhuset is operated by FEAS Erhverv P/S, a subsidiary under Aarhus University Research Foundation, and INCUBA A/S. The foundation's purpose is to support scientific research at Aarhus University, but also works, among other things through FEAS, to realize Aarhus University's vision of a unified campus where Universitetsparken, Universitetsbyen and Katrinebjerg are connected more closely, both physically and academically.

In 2016, FEAS acquired the former Aarhus Municipal Hospital, and in May 2019, the transformation into Universitetsbyen was initiated. Here, Partnerhuset is located in a historic setting with modern content and in close interaction with the university.

We have a clear ambition that Universitetsbyen should be a hub for business development in Aarhus and Central Jutland Region. It should buzz with activity including presentations and workshops on innovation and entrepreneurship, and the area should generally be a strong magnet for both established and startup companies that want to share in the knowledge and networks that exist.
