Business incubation
gives entrepreneurs the opportunity
to launch their venture at
a prestigious address, while
surrounded by successful
and experienced professionals
and businesses. As a tenant
in the Innovation Center,
you will enjoy a custom-designed
environment of technical
and business services to
assure success.
Corporate
Partnering
The
CCIC program provides "neutral ground"
for corporate partnering on short
or long-term special projects.
The program is designed to nurture
new product ventures through the
start-up stage, which is the most
critical time in any business
endeavor. In addition to housing
fledgling companies in a traditional
incubator, our facilities can
be used as off-site "skunk-works"
for large projects for established
businesses.
