Incubators: Providing a Supportive Environment for Startups
Incubators are early-stage startup support systems that offer a conducive environment and needs-based support to help startups grow. They provide access to mentors, connections, and resources, both physical and online. Incubators can be managed by VC funds or other organizations and often focus on specific industries or geographic areas. The COVA Startup Hub in Japan, for example, provided on-demand support and connections to mentors, partners, and investors for both domestic and foreign startups.
