What is A Business Incubator?

A startup incubator is a program designed to help early-stage businesses grow by providing mentorship, resources, and a supportive environment. It’s designed to nurture startups during their early phases and prepare them for scaling. 

Business incubators act as a bridge between an idea and a fully operational business. Unlike going solo, where you have to navigate challenges on your own, an incubator surrounds you with experts and industry connections.

These programs often provide training and access to funding opportunities, which create a structured environment for startups to experiment and grow without the immediate pressures of profitability. 

Many successful companies that you may know and love, like Airbnb and Dropbox, started in business incubators. ​
