  6. THE PRIMARY OBJECTIVES OF THE HOTBANK CASE STUDY WERE: 1. Discuss the rapid growth of a new organizational models that exploit entrepreneurial drive and network access while preserving the benefits of scale and scope. Networked incubators are one such emerging model. 2.

Understand that because the phenomenon is so new, uncertainty exists about the future success of networked incubators.
