In 2007 the Foundation for Support of Entrepreneurship and Science won first prize in
the “Modernization of the Year” competition for adapting and modernizing a factory building
to serve as a television studio.
In five years the Foundation’s TV studios will be used as training facilities for future television
and film industry employees by the “On Air” Post-Secondary Film and TV School, which is due
to be opened in 2011. They will also find use in film and TV productions, utilizing the latest
technologies.
The Foundation’s goal is to aid entrepreneurs who have interesting ideas but lack the necessary experience and
resources to enter the market on their own. Newly founded firms receive a 50% discount on office rental rates for the
first year of incubation. The premises come with a full set of furniture, a multifunction printer, telephone and Internet
access. Incubated firms also have access to conference rooms.
Furthermore, the Foundation would like to support the media and film industry in Łódź by providing a modern
television studio located in the city center.
Presently, the Foundation is looking for an institution that would cooperate in the utilization of the TV studio
infrastructure. Its activities further extend to renting multimedia conference rooms and providing “virtual office”
services.
