Tech Incubators & Accelerators #2

1/28/2016

 
Picture
This is part 2 of a massive list of company building centers/organizations composed of local government, businesses, universities and investors to help reduce the tech company failure rate.  If the business succeeds everyone is a winner as the company makes money, they hire more people, those people spend money locally, the tax base increases and investors get a return. What these start-ups need more than capital is expertise who can advise them on setting priorities, how to reach their particular market, sources for finance, supplies and people. All these sites have a different mix of services they offer clients i.e. it maybe inexpensive office or lab space with IT services as well. Some will pay a minimum fee as they go others may get services for an equity stake in their company. Check out one near you and send me your feedback.
