The city of Leiden has a large amount of knowledge, clever people and amazing businesses. Science meets Business was founded with the idea in mind that these clever people and amazing businesses needed a place to meet, share their ideas and turn scientific advancements and knowledge into practical applications.

The SmB Cafe is the first way of doing this. A meetup between great and inspiring minds that anyone who wishes so can join up with during this monthly event.

Since then, with the Science meets Business Plan Copetition (SmBPC), high involvement in the Gulliver events and Science dates Business (science based business matchmaking) SmB aims to help people start and grow their own science enterprises.
