  3. What is the purpose of a business incubator? A Business incubator is established to develop and implement a strong microenterprise development program that addresses the needs of the low to moderate income residents and provides access to loan capital, business support, training, technical assistance and follow-up services. An incubator works with existing small business owners to strengthen and sustain this sector as well. Most cities recognize the potential positive and significant impact that the development of micro and small business enterprises has on economic development.
