CESACOPA is a coffee cooperative located in Amboim province, Angola. The main objective of the CESACOPA project is to increase coffee quality standards for export while at the same time making a clear contribution to the community e.g., employment generation and pollution abatement. The coffee is produced without use of chemicals or pesticides and the fertilizer used is organic. It is also noted that the project impacts some 6000 families as direct beneficiaries. Leo Soldaat, the Senior Advisor of Financial Services at Hivos, explained, ‘At Hivos, we stand for supporting entrepreneurial activities with important impact in the areas of poverty, climate change and food security. Our focus is on people living in rural areas and CESACOPA is an example of a promising initiative taking these challenges head on.’

To honour Jean-Baptiste Say, one of the founders of ESCP and the person who coined the term 'entrepreneur', we were delighted to celebrate the 13th edition of the Jean-Baptiste Say Entrepreneurship Festival.
The theme for this year's Festival was 'Entrepreneurship for All'.
Hosted by Prof. Stela Ivanova, the vision of the event is to unite students, alumni, entrepreneurs, investors and potential customers to exchange ideas and learn from each other. This event is run as part of ESCP's top-ranked Master in Management programme, currently placed 5th worldwide by the Financial Times. Five of our six European campuses are running local Entrepreneurship Festivals on the same day, just another example of ESCP's pan-European spirit.
This event is supported by the ESCP Blue Factory, the JBS Institute and the Alumni Association. The Blue Factory is our European incubator that supports founders - students and graduates - from ideation to their company's international development. The 2022 Winter Entrepreneurship Festival will represent the ongoing effort of the London community of this great project.
The Jean-Baptiste Say Institute for Entrepreneurship relies on a unique European network, which was developed in 2007 by the Entrepreneurship Chair of ESCP Business School. Today, this institute has more than 50 researchers and teachers. Its main activities are teaching, supporting start-ups with Blue Factory, a European incubator, and entrepreneurship research.

A Stellar Incubator
Starburst galaxy NGC 1313 is a stellar incubator delivering stars on a scale rarely seen in a single galaxy of its size. As imaged by the Gemini South 8-meter telescope in Chile, a multitude of colorful gas clouds blaze forth from the galaxy’s spiral arms, a tell-tale sign that this extragalactic wonder is a prolific star factory. Located some 15 million light years away, NGC 1313 is a late-type barred spiral galaxy. It is a relatively close galactic neighbor to the Milky Way and has a mysterious past. Generally, starburst galaxies show some signs of interaction with another galaxy; and a close galactic encounter is usually responsible for sparking increased levels of starbirth activity. However, NGC 1313 appears to be a neighborless “drifter,” far away from any other packs of galaxies. It is possible that a thousand supernovae exploded in a span of just a few million years, forming a “superbubble” of gas that triggered star formation as it expanded outward. Another theory is that shock waves generated by an unseen companion punching through the disk set off star formation like ripples in a pond. Then again, nearby gas clouds may simply be falling into (or orbiting) the galaxy, prompting localized starbursts. Whatever the cause,

The words Crystal Palace have been scrubbed out, but are present on another identical card. Not posted, so I am unsure when the card was printed - I think at least pre-WW1, and when the original photo was taken, may have been earlier. The sign on the wall asks for the incubators not to be touched under any circumstances.
The Incubator Space consists of a mix of areas within the one larger space. Here we see a part of the 'Gallery' with artwork on the walls. The area has a contemporary and complimentary colour scheme. A students music group provides live 'Jazz in the Lab' on Friday afternoons whilst students are working, making it a stimulating and interesting place to meet and study.

Two years ago, I painted some Easter eggs like the stormtroopers from Star Wars. All this time, they lay quite quietly, peacefully, showing no signs of life, but this morning I heard the knocking and sounds of cracking eggshells, and when I opened the box I saw some little, newborn Lego stormtroopers. Very cute! In my opinion, this is a miracle.
After the initial installation of ceiling traps in the control room at Incubator, further measurements revealed there was still a severe dip (or null) at 180Hz. The problem was immediately solved with 4 x BT600/150 on the rear wall. Nice when that happens!

This year’s African Finance and Investment Forum, held on the 18th of June at the Rabobank Headquarters in the Netherlands, gathered leading global representatives from a variety of sectors to highlight the financial tools, solutions and growing policy trends needed to ensure economic growth for Africa’s SMEs. The discussions and proposals highlighted at the forum are essential for a cross section of African sectors and look at concrete strategies needed to establish their full economic potential. The Rabobank Foundation, Centenary Bank, Global Development Cooperative, the World Bank, GIZ (German International Cooperation Organisation), FARA and the Shell Foundation are just a few of the organisations that attended the AFIF this year.
The Humanist Institute for Development Cooperation (Hivos), a leading Dutch organisation with a worldwide presence, and its partner organization Venture Capital for Africa (VC4Africa.biz), the leading Africa focused business community for entrepreneurs and investors, are pleased to announce CESACOPA the winner of 2012 Incubator Award.
CESACOPA is a coffee cooperative located in Amboim province, Angola. The main objective of the CESACOPA project is to increase coffee quality standards for export while at the same time making a clear contribution to the community e.g., employment generation and pollution abatement. The coffee is produced without use of chemicals or pesticides and the fertilizer used is organic. It is also noted that the project impacts some 6000 families as direct beneficiaries.

The Microbiome Rebirth Incubator is a device designed to seed babies born by emergency C-section with vaginal bacteria and breast milk essential to infant growth, either by dipping the newborn in the incubator, or by soaking a sterile compress in the probiotic cocktail to wash the baby’s mouth, face and body. This project symbolically explores the possibility of repairing the microbiome, as a way to re-empower the mother and her child, and to erase the traumatic experience of caesarean birth.
