“…Several issues related to the organization of the efficient functioning of technology parks and business incubators, including in developing countries [15,16] were raised in foreign and domestic research, such as their funding from various sources, including public funds [17], the development of small innovative enterprises [18]. Special reviews of best practices are used as a basis for analysing the features of foreign technology parks and business incubators [15,[19][20][21][22], as well as official analytical reviews of the EU [23,24].…”

Abstract:The article is devoted to the analysis of the issues technoparks development in Russia and the EU countries. Method of system analysis; formal-logical method; method of comparative analysis; method of structural analysis is applied in the research. The study found that technology parks should maintain close ties with state agencies of all levels to achieve high efficiency. In turn, state structures can support the science park in many ways, as a founding partner, sponsor, service provider or client. The roles and responsibilities assumed by public authorities and administrations at various levels depend on their interest in the economic development of their territories, on the functional features and the management of technology parks. All these points must be taken into account by investors when they make a decision to participate in the technology park in a particular area.

“…Access to networks has been a primary service that is central to incubation. Although previous studies have identified the tight-coupling between ESHC and NTBFs' survival, the co-production theory of an incubator manifests that the network that entrepreneurs are involved in determines the output of their collaboration [31]. The incubation network is a kind of social network.…”

Drawing upon human capital theory and the co-production view of business support processes, this paper investigates the moderating effects of network involvement on entrepreneurship-specific human capital (ESHC) that determines the tenants’ survival in an incubator. Longitudinal data between 2006 and 2009 of 71 ventures located in an incubator in China have been collected and analyzed. The research confirms that network involvement strengthens the influence of entrepreneurial experience on tenants’ successful graduation, but does not impact the relationship between entrepreneurial family background and tenants’ graduation.

“…A number of later studies covered the impact of incubator managers and their relationships with incubatees, such as Rice ( 2002), who focused on the external network of co-production business assistance in the incubation process. With the increase of services and support from the incubators in later years, more services and support were included into the incubation process, such as mentorship, pre-incubation, post-incubation and incubation manager characteristics (Eriksson et al, 2016;Giordano Mart ınez et al, 2018;Voisey et al, 2013). A number of studies reviewed incubation exit management and survival (Blok et al, 2017;Hannon, 2005;Mcadam and Marlow, 2007;Patton et al, 2009;Schwartz, 2009) and concentrated on the incubatees' survival in business after their graduation.…”

PurposeThis paper discusses the services and support from one of the government design-based business incubators in Hong Kong. The characteristics of a design business incubator are explained, and a multiple-case study indicates the perspectives of incubatees from different design disciplines after their graduation from the incubation programme.Design/methodology/approachThe research under discussion in this paper was based on eight design incubatees in different design disciplines within two years of incubation period, all of whom had participated in one of the government-funded business incubation programmes for designers in Hong Kong. The programme is unique because there are no other government-based incubation programmes for designers in Hong Kong. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to collect feedback from incubatees in areas ranging from terms of service to support of the incubation programme.FindingsThe services of training, mentorship and finance were found to be the most important to design start-ups. Financial support and flexible funding allocation were another important issue for design incubatees, but training in these subject areas was not included in the incubation programme. However, it was confirmed that funding provided may have helped a number of the incubatees in developing their start-up businesses as a result of the reduced financial burden and office allocation.Research limitations/implicationsThe research focused on one incubation programme because of the lack of incubation programmes for designers in Hong Kong, therefore future research which compares different types of business incubation programmes is suggested.Practical implicationsThe outcomes of the research not only identified the possible areas of development and improvement of business incubation in entrepreneurship but they will also be useful for the government, universities, institutions, designers, policy makers, entrepreneurs and practitioners. These, in addition to industry stakeholders who want to evaluate their entrepreneurship programmes and develop their plans for potential development in incubation- or entrepreneurial-related programmes or training, especially in the area of design, will find the results useful.
