When deciding where to locate your business, an incubator or co-working space may be the right decision for you. Incubators are unique in that they focus primarily on start-up and early-stage companies, providing all of the resources necessary to establish and build a successful business. Similarly, co-working spaces offer a location for independent workers and entrepreneurs who desire community and synergy by providing collaboration and basic office supplies.   

What is an incubator?

Incubators are typically industry-specific and provide a location for you to start your business with low overhead costs and a variety of other amenities. An incubator generally provides business mentoring, focusing on the development of strong business plans, financial management techniques, marketing strategies, networking activities, and funding opportunities. In addition, incubators provide a low-cost location with a variety of features ranging from conference rooms to answering services to laboratory research facilities. 

What is a co-working space?

Co-working spaces provide a physical location to independent workers, such as freelancers and virtual workers who desire a sense of community and collaboration. In addition, meeting space and networking opportunities are typically available, as well as basic business necessities such as Internet access, printing and faxing, and office supplies.
