Overview
The Business Incubation Center of NUML (BICON), a flagship initiative of the Higher Education Commission (HEC), has been driving entrepreneurial growth since October 2016. Established under ORIC, BICON is more than an incubation space; it is a launchpad for ideas that can shape the future.
We believe entrepreneurship is not limited to innovation alone; it is about thinking differently, doing differently, and creating value where others see none. Sometimes it is a breakthrough idea, and at other times it is a smart imitation reimagined with creativity and purpose. At BICON, both paths are celebrated; because what truly matters is the ability to scale, sustain, and make an impact. BICON empowers students, alumni, and faculty to prepare for the future of work by nurturing their entrepreneurial spirit, offering state-of-the-art infrastructure, and enabling problem-solving through innovation and collaboration. Our programs provide mentorship, training, and industry linkages that transform passion into enterprises, and enterprises into success stories.
As a national hub of entrepreneurship, BICON connects NUML with change makers, investors, and institutions across Pakistan. We aim to spark an entrepreneurial wave that strengthens academia, fuels economic growth, and inspires a new generation of leaders.
At BICON, we don’t just incubate startups; we incubate resilience, vision, and the courage to build businesses that change lives.
