Research Abstract

Business incubators are well established in the technology field and represented the entrepreneurial process. Current research in the field of business incubation is mostly focused on the technology industry. Governments have recently placed more emphasis on creative industries. As a result, it may be concluded that there is a lack of research in this area.
