Forbes published an article on Friday how technology incubators are an efficient way to spur entrepreneurship and economic growth. Using data from CB Insights they created a list of 10 technology incubators that are changing the world. ATDC, where I am honored to work, was among them. Here is the list:
- Y Combinator
- Massachusetts Biomedical Initiatives
- Houston Technology Center
- Palo Atlo Research Center
- The Technology Innovation Center
- The Icehouse
- The Research Park at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
- The Advanced Technology Development Center at Georgia Tech
- University Research Park and MGE Innovation Center at the University of Wisconsin
- The Environmental Business Cluster
The Icehouse in New Zealand has the coolest name and thank goodness for our friends in the midwest for not only developing startups but having the down to earth sensibilities to come up with longer more convoluted names.
Here is the in-depth Forbes slideshow.
