We are dreamers. We are doers. Inspired to find new ways. Driven to succeed.
Business incubation is a dynamic process of business enterprise development. Incubators nurture young firms, helping them to survive and grow during the start-up period when they are most vulnerable. Incubators provide hands-on management assistance, access to financing and orchestrated exposure to critical business or technical support services. They also offer entrepreneurial firms shared office services, access to equipment, flexible leases and expandable space - all under one roof.
If you would like to participate in the Incubator Network program, contact the Global Investment and Retention Division at 601-359-3593 or call the business incubator nearest you.
