What it looks like

An incubator supports company formation over a longer, looser period than an accelerator.

Who it is for: founders at the idea or very early stage, often tied to a university, city, or sector.

What you get: workspace, coaching, services, and a community. Some invest; many do not.

How people get in: rolling applications are common. Fit with the host institution or sector usually matters most.

The programs here name researchers and scientists among the people they are built for. Many accept other backgrounds too.
