Martin Goroško · Comments: 0

POSTINCUBATION:  Science and technology parks (STPs) that distinguish themselves from traditional real estate developments seek to provide the best possible facilities, amenities, and services to their resident companies, understanding that to do so support the underlying innovation theories that sustain positive economic development. STP residents include a wide spectrum of companies at various stages of development - from pre-incubation to multi-national corporations.

What is the role of, and what services will be provided by Science Parks and Incubators in the context of companies that find themselves too developed to qualify for early-stage incubation support yet insufficiently developed to stand solidly on terra firma or even to grow and survive?” *
