This panel discussion was a part of a programme ‘From Incubation to Enterprise’ which was conducted by Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad's (IIMA) Centre for Innovation, Incubation, and Entreprenuership (CIIE) on January 4, 2003. Professor Pankaj Chandra of IIMA led the discussion. The distinguished panelists were Mr Sandeep Srivastav and Professor Bipin Shah. Their experience and insight on the subject helped in understanding the process of incubation leading to enterprise. The panel discussion addressed the following questions: What is incubation? What is innovation? What is the process of incubation that is needed for commercializing an innovation? What role does an incubator play? The following important points were made by the panelists: An innovative entrepreneur should adapt to the demand of the market. The adaptation may be with regard to technology, marketing, business idea or business plan. The concept of incubation originated from the medical field. The concept of incubators is applied more to project ideas which have a high degree of uncertainty. The aim of the incubators is to facilitate the survival of such companies and also to nurture these companies for growth and success. Incubators play the role of risk-sharing and providing credibility to an idea as it progresses from being an idea to some kind of product. It minimizes uncertainty and increases the success rate of an enterprise that is at a very nascent stage. The difference among promotional efforts and hand-holding is that promotional effort is the assistance given for setting up a business whereas, in an incubator, it is more of hand-holding. The biggest benefit of being in an incubator is that it insulates you from the outside environment and hence an innovator can just concentrate on getting his idea fool-proof for the market. Incubators even provide the network, linking the innovators with societal resources. The network is of two kinds - knowledge network and social network. The role of venture capitalists in enterprise building is to provide linkages for a budding entrepreneur. But not many people are ready to give money at an idea level Professor Pankaj Chandra concluded the discussion by saying that the incubator is not just for supporting the innovator but also for ensuring that the idea is converted into an enterprise.

Purpose – Corporate incubation is a type of business incubation designed to assist small firms to develop using know-how available in large companies. The purpose of this paper is to explicate how incubation services can be co-produced and describe the contributions and conditions influencing learning and firm development. Design/methodology/approach – The study used a longitudinal single-case method to analyze a small firm’s development process during four years of incubation. The authors recorded and analyzed interviews with the incubator manager and the entrepreneur, and with incubator staff and external stakeholders. Findings – The incubator provided knowledge- and network-based services. These services emphasized the need for the entrepreneurs to be both proactive and receptive to counseling. Although the incubator and the entrepreneurs made progress in developing the company, a dispute over ownership shares threatened to break down the incubation process. Research limitations/implications – Taking evidence from a longitudinal case study, this paper exemplifies and emphasizes that incubation can be a process of interdependent service production in which entrepreneurs are active contributors. Future research should explore how managers and entrepreneurs handle the ambiguities of valuation of incubator contributions. Practical implications – For managers it is important to take seriously the key task of communicating the value of the incubator’s contribution to the companies they recruit. For entrepreneurs it is important to find ways to estimate potential for value added from the incubator. Originality/value – This paper provides a processual understanding of the dynamics of incubator co-production, not found in extant literature.

The authors review the different facets of the incubation process for high-tech companies and highlight its complex and multidimensional nature. They then assess what are the most critical factors in incubation in the context of the market supply and demand for incubation facilities. They identify two key facets, selectivity and productivity requirements, and through these construct a typology that is founded on non-ambiguous factors. They discuss the implications of this typology using data from exploratory research and suggest areas of focus for further empirical studies.

Abstract. Technology-based startup plays a vital role in improving the Indonesian economy. There are thousands of units of technology-based startups, though most of them are not adequately sustainable. The inadequacy is attributed to the fact that the products or services created are not in line with market needs and do not help understand business processes. Universities play an essential role in developing startups through business incubators to compete in the digital age. There is no conducive learning environment for business incubators in Indonesia, though the national standards are used. This research evaluates the learning process in a Technology Business Incubator in Bandung University using case study methods. Data is collected by performing in-depth interviews with three incubator managers and seven startup founders or tenants who have completed the incubation process. The business industry consists of education, design, printing, and fishery, while thehe interviews cover the process before, during, and after incubation, including the tenant's selection criteria and stages, learning processes in incubators and facilities, after graduation programs, and measurement of the impacts. The results show that the practices fit the ideal conditions, including training-focused and knowledge sharing session programs or skills, knowledge provisions, and expertise improvement programs for tenants, rental system facilities for graduates, and commercialization support. Furthermore, there are opportunities to improve several aspects, including developing tenant admission selection criteria, effective learning approaches, coaching, networking, and broader funding, graduation criteria, monitoring for graduates, and a more comprehensive range of impact measurement. This research helps guide business incubators to prioritize developing aspects of services. Moreover, evaluation using the mixed method is open for further investigation. Keywords: Business incubator, pre-incubation, main incubation, post-incubation, startup, learning evaluation

Full textAbstract:
The Virtuous Incubation System is a solution aimed at transforming poultry farming by integrating Internet of Things (IoT) technology into the incubation process. This paper seeks to improve the efficiency and success rate of poultry egg incubation while minimizing manual intervention, reducing resource consumption, and ensuring optimal conditions for embryo development by providing a smart incubator system. The smart incubator addresses the challenges of traditional manual monitoring and adjustments by leveraging IoT devices, sensors, and data analytics to create an automated and intelligent incubation system. It provides energy efficiency by incorporating energy-efficient components to minimize power consumption, thereby reducing operational costs for farmers, and by providing notifications and alerts where critical deviations in environmental conditions or equipment malfunction, enabling proactive intervention to prevent losses. A cross-section of small- to medium-scale poultry producers, particularly those engaged in hatching chicks, were interviewed to highlight the main challenges regarding the business of hatching chicks. It was learned through the interviews that chick production on a small to medium scale was relatively expensive due to the labor employed to monitor the production and losses due to adverse conditions resulting in a poor success rate in hatching the chicks. Thus, the implementation of the virtuous incubation system comes in to solve the main challenges being faced by the local poultry producers.

The egg incubator was originally a simple tool using a lamp to produce heat without other supporting tools, So the incubation process has a big influence on traditional egg hatching through the mother duck incubating the eggs. However, temperature control at the time Incubation of eggs by the parent certainly has certain limitations due to the parent which is difficult to control in order to incubate it which ultimately causes the egg to suffer hatch failure. In the process of hatching duck eggs, you must pay attention to temperature and humidity and egg rotation which must be maintained regularly, is necessary continuous supervision and monitoring so that the eggs can hatch well. By utilizing applicable Internet of Things technology in the field of animal husbandry, it is a solution to monitor the condition of hatching duck eggs automatic and real-time, so it can help farmers in monitoring conditions such as temperature and humidity as well as the condition of the eggs in the hatching room. So A research was conducted entitled "Duck Egg Hatching Incubator Technology Internet of Things” was carried out with the aim of making things easier for breeders monitor temperature and humidity and monitor conditions inside real time drip space.

This article provides a contextualization of the relationship between innovation, entrepreneurship and technology transfer, involving several agents, such as: companies, educational institutions, research institutes and the government. The objective is to identify the main requirements and design a science and technology-based pre-incubation environment at the university level. The methodology, conducted by a multinational team, included a literature review with well-defined selection criteria based on keywords, thematic focus, and the region targeted by the study in the databases of CAPES, Web of Science, SciELO and Scopus, using Mendeley software to manage bibliographic references. The literature review highlighted the importance of incubation environments for universities and early-stage companies (startups), in addition to identifying existing pre-incubators for benchmarking. Using the action research methodology, a Project Script was developed for the implementation of the pre-incubator at a University in Brazil, defining the stages of the pre-incubation process. In addition, this article analyzes how incubators and accelerators support technology transfer between technology-based companies and Scientific, Technological and Innovation Institutions. Finally, the data collected provides information on technology transfer practices and models used for a SWOT analysis of the Brazilian innovation and technology transfer scenario.

Full textAbstract:
In this communication, we present the prototype of a new simulated in situ lab/on-deck incubator, the light spectrum replicator (LSR), and a method for simulating the measured in situ HOCR light spectrum curves in incubation chambers. We developed this system using AI and genetic algorithms in an iterative fashion to find the best-fitting light spectrum in situ irradiance at different depths. The HOCR light spectrum measured at the depth and time of sampling was processed immediately, so the incubator is in a stable and ready condition by the time the samples inoculated with 14C were placed in sample holders (10 min after sampling). This incubator is intended to provide a reliable, fast, and easy-to-use tool for studying primary production based on the evaluation of the photosynthetic uptake of 14C. This system enables short incubation periods for small samples: we tested incubations of 5 mL samples during 15 min incubation periods. Our initial measurements taken using the prototype revealed a sufficiently good correlation between the on-deck measurements and in situ incubations. This prototype can be improved, as discussed in this text.

Purpose This study aims to explore key factors and specific ways for the upgrade to hybrid incubators in the context of China. A hybrid incubator means that a technology-based business incubators (TBIs) can implement various distinct value creation processes with the integration of the advantages of non-for-profit and for-profit TBIs at same time as Chinese government now requires government-sponsored non-for-profit TBIs to be profitable self-sustainability with less dependent on direct public subsidies, aiming to motivate these TBIs to provide higher quality services for their tenant new technology-based firms (NTBFs). Design/methodology/approach This study conducts a single in-depth case-study of Tuspark Incubator (located in Tsinghua Science Park [TSP]) with categorical analysis. Findings Three factors, i.e. incubation subdivision, intermediary platform and proactive approach, are found to be essential for a formerly government-sponsored TBI’s upgrading. Incubation subdivision enables Tuspark Incubator to create multiple incubation processes with incubator characteristic variables of both non-for-profit and for-profit incubators; with the establishment of intermediary platform, Tuspark Incubator provides specialized business support and high-quality networking from relevant specialized service organizations external to the incubator; more proactive approach with equity investment on incubating firms from Tuspark Incubator help to generate social welfare and financial profit at the same time. Practical implications For the incubators’ managers, incubation subdivision enables TBIs to operate for-profit and non-for-profit processes at the same time and provides different specific needs; more open intermediary service platforms can leverage the full potential of the actors in innovation system and help TBIs to save resource when upgrading to hybrid incubators; proactive approaches nurture learning climate and entrepreneurship environment to enhance the successful rate on NTBFs inside incubators and provide main profit source for incubators. For policy makers, using proactive approaches including creating a good milieu for incubation on technology-based start-ups and the design of public guidance funds is increasingly crucial. Originality/value This research is a pioneering study on the key factors and specific ways for the upgrade of government-sponsored non-for-profit TBIs in China to hybrid for-profit and non-for-profit incubators.

Purpose Technology business incubators (TBIs) form an indispensable part of an entrepreneurial ecosystem for the promotion of tech start-ups across the global economy. However, they have evolved in varied forms over a period of time, in terms of typologies, sponsors and stakeholders, goals and objectives, functions and services offered, process of incubation support provided through hard and soft infrastructure, outcomes and achievements and even in terms of theoretical bases. The purpose of this paper, therefore, is to review the extant literature on TBIs to arrive at a framework that explains how TBIs contribute to start-up generation. Design/methodology/approach This paper reviews extant empirical literature for a systematic evaluation to throw light on the various dimensions of TBIs: typology, goals and objectives, functions and services, process and provision of incubation support, outcomes and achievements. Further, after critically reviewing some of the theoretical propositions, it develops a conceptual framework combining pre-incubation, incubation and post-incubation processes of TBIs. Findings Based on literature understanding and some of the key theoretical constructs, a conceptual framework is developed comprising pre-incubation, incubation and post-incubation stages of start-up formation and graduation. The paper also identifies some prospective areas for future research. Research limitations/implications Any empirical research on technology business incubation must focus on pre-incubation and post-incubation processes as much as on the incubation process, to derive meaningful implications and enhance the productivity of TBIs. Originality/value The conceptual framework derived out of the systematic literature review will enable further research and exploration of micro-aspects of pre-incubation, incubation and post-incubation phases across multiple dimensions.

Abstract This article shows the results of chicken eggs incubation by IUP-F-45 and BioStreamer 165HD. There were two different types of machines during two-lots of eggs incubation. The BioStreamer 165HD is equipped with such feature as flexible incubation environment tuning according to its technology of embryo feedback. The sensors control the temperature inside machine by using the temperature of egg shells. Also there are sensors which can monitor the humidity level by controlling and predicting the humidity loss of each egg lot and using the narrow-hatching window technology. The incubators are managed by controller and connected to one computer network. The eggs are set to cellular structure incubation tray. The pulsators are equipped with five wide blades to ensure the required air flow rate. In addition, the roof vents have been improved. The power of the heating elements has been increased, which provides a quick heating time for all eggs at the beginning of the incubation cycle. The larger diameter of the cooling coil creates a wider overall cooling surface. As a result of the research, it was found that the use of the BioStreamer incubator made it possible to increase the hatchability of eggs, to carry out the simultaneous hatching of young brood, reducing the hatching by 5.5 hours, to increase the yield of conditioned young chickens by 0.9% and its quality, to obtain a greater amount of meat products from broilers: the average weight of chickens increased by 2.7 per cent, the safety of brood - by 3.6 per cent.

This paper considers the underlying processes and contexts of incubation as critical factors in accelerated firm growth in a university-based technology incubator. At the heart of the study is a concern to understand these dynamics in the early stages of incubation, including processes of firm network formation, the capacity to access and use combinations of resources at various phases of incubation, and the ways in which the incubator, as a techno-social space, supports the connection of different resources and their relationships. Building on theoretical frameworks that draw on the conceptual work of Lachmann and Bourdieu, the authors argue that it is possible to identify ‘heterogeneous resources' as different forms of ‘capital’ at work in the incubation process. The empirical case study at a university-based technology incubator illustrates the ways in which university incubators help high-tech start-up firms to build these capabilities through network formation and a variety of types of resource mobilization.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyze and summarize growth and development of technology business incubation system in India. The study in this route tries to explore factors which include various actors and agencies influencing the process of incubation and innovation. Design/methodology/approach The paper in route to access the role of different actors and agencies situated around the incubation process is being executed through the systems of innovation framework. Data have been collected from the secondary sources including government department, ministries and other sources. Findings The study besides providing an in-depth analysis of the incubation process in India finds that the process is relatively new in the Indian context and lacks a profound policy for escalating the process of technological incubation. The study also finds that over the years India’s innovation potential has escalated significantly which in a way can be seen as an optimistic result in the growth and development of technology business incubation. Originality/value The proposed study is one of the few in this category, especially while analyzing technology business incubation with respect to India. The study also tries to add on literature in the domain of technology incubation especially in the context of India.

Purpose – The ability of tenant firms to survive after incubation is dependent on the relevant capabilities they acquired during the incubation process. Several studies have established the critical roles of incubation in fostering entrepreneurship and innovation at local, national and regional levels but the processes and mechanisms of technological learning and the capability building of the tenants has received much less attention. In response to the situation, the purpose of this paper is to assess various technological learning mechanisms through which tenant firms in the incubation system in Nigeria acquired the relevant capabilities (both technological and non-technological) that will sustain them after graduation. Design/methodology/approach – The information was gathered through a preliminary survey and questionnaires were administered to elicit information from the tenant firms and the incubator managers. Data collected were analysed and presented using descriptive statistics. Findings – The internal learning mechanisms of the tenant firms were found to be fair as firms possessed good internal capabilities that helped to absorb and adapt foreign technologies to suit their individual production needs and this was demonstrated by the quality of personnel employed by the tenant firms. The study revealed poor interaction between the tenants and knowledge institutions and training programmes and facilities also played significant roles in technological capability acquisition of tenants firms. The main factors that ranked highly and influenced technological learning among the firms included the need for product improvement, the need to increase production, turnover and profit, the need to reduce production costs and compete well after graduation, while the need to enter foreign market and commercialise technology ranked average with regards to success in technological learning. Research limitations/implications – The results of the study may not be generalised because of limited sample. Practical implications – The study concluded that the technological learning capabilities of the firms could be better enhanced with adequate training and training facilities, robust linkages with knowledge centres and compliance with incubation regulations. Originality/value – This study provided information on various technological learning mechanisms through which tenant firms in the incubation system in Nigeria acquire relevant capabilities (technological and non-technological) that sustain them after graduation. The study also contributed to the growing literature on incubation system and entrepreneurship.

Technology business incubation is vital for the promotion of innovative development and plays an essential role in economic development and social stability. This paper empirically studies the impact of fund types on incubator innovation and its mechanisms using China’s incubator data from 2015 to 2019 and the fixed effect model. It is found that incubation funds, venture capital, and fiscal subsidies can significantly promote incubator innovation, with venture capital having the most substantial boost, followed by incubation funds and fiscal subsidies. Analysis of these mechanisms reveals that the promotion of incubator innovation by different funds relies primarily on R&D expenditure and on the scale of technology services expenditures. Further analysis shows that the effect varies according to the incubator, and that a reduction in the proportion of a comprehensive incubator fund or in the proportion of subsidy for a professional incubator does not contribute to enterprise innovation. This paper provides empirical evidence to support China in its improvement of the financing mechanisms for entrepreneurship and the promotion of sustainable economic and social development.

Business incubators ensure networking and facilitate Open Innovation (OI) collaborations both inside the incubator among entrepreneurs and outside with external stakeholders. Recently, the sustainability and the promotion of environment-friendly businesses has become an important focus for the business incubators. Sustainability-oriented business incubation is a relatively new and emerging topic both for scholars and BI practitioners. This paper aims to explore the theoretical groundings for the business incubation perspectives in facilitating sustainable value creation through OI approaches and to test research instruments exploring determinants of the technology-driven sustainable value creation in incubated start-ups in Latvia. Through the pilot survey, this study will also increase the awareness on the importance of the OI and the creation of sustainable value, and provides the preliminary results to be considered by scholars and practitioners. Results show that climate change, as a planetary boundary, positively stimulates incubated start-ups to improve their technology-driven sustainable value creation. However, sustainability ambition, if negatively influenced by the incubator location, negatively affects the technology-driven sustainable value creation. These results on the sustainability scale within the business incubation of start-ups contribute to the new theoretical concepts, related to integration of the sustainability issues and OI practices within business incubation.

Purpose Innovation is a constant attribute in the management processes of technology-based companies (TBCs), mostly small and young, and plays a relevant role in their competitiveness and survival. However, the authors assumed that the characteristics of innovation practices differ between incubated and post-incubated companies, in such aspects as formality, type, posture and strategy. The purpose of this paper is to report the innovation practices identified in small TBCs in the incubation and post-incubation periods (graduate companies). Design/methodology/approach To achieve the purpose, the authors carried out a multiple case study with four TBCs, two incubated and two post-incubated (graduate); the study was qualitative and exploratory, and the authors collected data with their managers. Findings The results show that these companies have high levels of innovation, which is a determinant factor for their presence in the business market; they create technological innovations in products and services, mostly incremental, such as improvements in existing products or reduction of internal costs of manufacturing. In addition, the results also show important features of the innovations, such as the interaction with other incubated companies and with universities and research centers. Originality/value The authors conclude that there were changes in innovation practices, in the transition from incubated to graduate companies, such as the formalization of processes, a shift in focus toward the customer and an increase in resources and in projects’ relevance.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to study the incubator policy to support entrepreneurial development. In particular, the study reviews the incubation programs and strategies of technology transfer and commercialization as well as the innovation policies to support innovation commercialization in Thailand, based on the Triple Helix model. Design/methodology/approach – This study employs the use of case study methodology to understand in-depth the operations of major university business incubators (UBIs) and technology business incubators in enhancing the process of technology commercialization. The study examines case studies of leading UBIs (Mahidol University, Chulalongkorn University and King Mongkut's University of Technology Thonburi) and science and technology incubators of the National Science and Technology Agency (NSTDA) and the National Innovation Agency (NIA). The operations and incubating policies are analyzed through the lens of Triple Helix model. The interviews were carried out using the semi-structured questionnaire to understand the views of trilateral parties (the government, university and industry) related to the concept of Triple Helix model. The interviews were carried out with major stakeholders including policy makers, policy analysts, government officials, managers running incubators, incubates, university professors, research managers. Interview data were supported by an examination of secondary data so as to provide a cross check on internal validity. Findings – The results have shown that the incubation program is one of the major policy mechanisms to support innovation and suggested that UBIs should act as an intermediary between the spheres of university and industry to provide interactive linkages and promote effective utilization of university research. The empirical study provides insightful implications on the move toward the entrepreneurial university and the dynamics of the Triple Helix system in stimulating innovation development and diffusion. Originality/value – By focussing on the major UBIs and technology business incubators in one of the Asian Tigers – Thailand, the study offers the model of university technology commercialization which could be applied to other developing economies. The study provides useful lessons and insights on the process of technology transfer and commercialization through the university incubation mechanism (university technology commercialization).

The study reveals useful strategy that the NVI utilized, specifically the quadruple helix model that links academics, government, industry managers and citizens. The Service Design Model is suggested for VSU-AFTBI in its approach to the quadruple helix mode and the following recommendations are proposed: an immediate assessment needs to be made of the VSU’s resources and capacity such as intellectual property valuation, technological readiness level, human capital resources and institutional capacity; a separate assessment of the business and community needs; participants and alumni need to be deeply engaged; student entrepreneurs need to be involved; and strengthened communication to improve brand and visibility. Although VSU’s AFTBI and NVI have different specializations and locations, the tenets are presented here in general form and can be expected to work in the context of Philippine’s VSU-AFTBI.

The purpose of this case study is to create a profile of business incubators by exploring various aspects concerned with their operations. While tracing the history, development and current practices of business incubators, the aspects explored include the identification of: the nature of clients served, incubator mission, incubator staffing/personnel, incubator management, incubator resources, and incubator facilities/technology. The main motivation behind this case study is to compile an exhaustive profile of business incubators into one paper.This case study mainly utilized secondary research. By using questionnaires, a survey conducted among managers of selected business incubators in the United States was done. The exploratory nature of this study prompted the use of open ended questions.Findings concerning incubator mission are that current incubators mainly provide professional services of increased complexity as opposed to earlier incubators. Regarding personnel, modern incubators have formal organization structures characterized by the aspect of co-learning. While earlier incubators primarily offered cheap rental space, modern incubators share resources via a complex network of virtual connectivity. On technology, sophisticated technological communication interfaces such as the internet are vital, previous incubators relied on outdated technology. Concerning management, modern incubators require highly adaptive managers capable of addressing specific needs due to the constantly changing business environment. Other findings include the fact that clients are predominantly small business owners and students. Further, managers mainly provide direct services to clients such as mentoring, coaching, and training.

Full textAbstract:
Universities facilitate academic entrepreneurship or their ‘third mission’ by making available supporting mechanisms such as science and technology parks, incubators, and entrepreneurship programs. Botswana’s STEM University seeks to develop a technology park in which it will commercialize the research and intellectual property developed by its faculty members, students, research centers and the country’s private sector through incubation and other processes. As a business support process, technology business incubation nurtures start-up companies and mitigates the risk of their early failure. In this enabling environment, start-ups can concentrate on technology transfer and later “hatch” or leave the incubator financially viable and self-sustaining. Pursuing academic entrepreneurship and the university-model of technology business incubation present benefits for the country, the local community and the university in terms of economic development, economic diversification, job creation, technology development, viable firms, successful products, and the enhancement of university income and prestige. However, university and faculty culture, and the extent of faculty members’ knowledge and skills in entrepreneurship and social capital may temper this potential. Utilizing a narrative review of the literature, this paper sought to identify critical issues a newly-participating university should be aware of as it seeks to adopt the university-model of business incubation to facilitate its transformation from a primary focus on its traditional research and teaching missions to one also based on the formal commercialization activities characterizing academic entrepreneurship. The paper informs on approaches the university may adopt to encourage academic entrepreneurship among its faculty members.

The authors explore the role played by science and technology parks (STPs) as regional platforms for incubating science- and technology-based businesses. Using multiple case studies of the more established US and French STP facilities, they provide an analysis of the contributions made by STPs as regional drivers of innovative entrepreneurship. The paper concludes that successful STPs can act as platforms for incubating science and technology businesses. If modern STPs are to emerge as sustainable platforms of incubation, their business models must be responsive to changing contextual needs through the pursuit of realistic goals, providing high-quality value-added services, employing professionally competent management and maintaining financial strength.

The incubation technology is having been an efficient means of producing chicks from eggs. The incubation technology does not require the service of hen before the chick is obtained from the laid eggs. The process automatically transforms eggs into chicks with some required number of days. Various types of egg incubator have been designed and fabricated by many researchers using different approach. This paper presents a more efficient incubator that was fabricated mechanically and powered by a solar energy. The fabricated poultry incubator is portable, user friendly, not expensive, and has a very low cost of maintenance. Solar energy was incorporated to take care of any power failure of electricity. The fabricated incubator was evaluated for its efficiency. The temperature supplied by the solar source was about 37°C which is enough to heat up the incubator to hatch the eggs. The average range of value obtained for the humidity was 56.15°C and the angle of tilt to rotate the tray was 46.58°. 95% of the eggs were fully hatched.

The overall aim of this paper is to deepen the understanding of forming and effectively managing university incubators in the UK. Recognizing that the term ‘business incubator’ embraces a wide range of institutions, all of which aim to foster the creation and development of enterprises – SMEs or corporate ventures – by established organizations, the formation of different types of university incubators is explored from the perspective of the incubator managers who are involved in the process. Four case studies are presented, which show how the incubator managers discern incubation practices within the current UK system of business incubation and develop their particular programmes. The case studies are constructed by generating in-depth case material through interviews with the incubator managers, participant observation in one setting, and documentary search during 2002 and the first half of 2003. Evaluating the contextual constraints and opportunities in the UK, it is illustrated that the contextual issues are by their nature complex, dynamic and diverse, and they are also central to understanding the way the incubation programmes are shaped and reshaped over time. Some core ideas and lessons have been drawn from the research and it is hoped that they can help incubation community members to re-evaluate their own experiences and assist public policy makers in gauging their policies.

The purpose of this research is to develop a model for measuring the efficiency of the TTO incubation process performance to accelerate the commercialization of research results in universities. The method of analyzing the efficiency used in this research is the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method based on Banker, Charnes, and Cooper (BCC), which is output-oriented. The software used in analyzing the efficiency of TTO performance is MaxDEA 8. The output of this research is a mathematical model tool for measuring the efficiency of TTO performance by DEA, which considered 17 parameters and proposed recommendations for TTO performance strategies. The limitation of this research is the object of research in one university that has succeeded in the commercialization of research. This research implies that the performance efficiency measurement model is an alternative predictive way to increase the acceleration of commercialization. The practical implications of this research are that it can evaluate performance or inefficient strategies in the incubation process of higher education research results to the Technology Transfer Office (TTO). This research also provides recommendations on strengthening the TTO function that can be used as a reference for improving performance at universities. This research measures the level of performance evaluation of TTO in the incubation process, which refers to the Death Valley framework. This incubation process is the main process accelerating the commercialization of research results in universities.

The Case Study section of the International Journal of Entrepreneurship and Innovation serves two purposes. First, the case studies presented are concerned with problematical issues that are pertinent to students of entrepreneurship. Thus they constitute appropriate teaching and learning vehicles on a variety of postgraduate and undergraduate programmes. Each case study is accompanied by a set of guidelines for the use of tutors. Second, it is envisaged that those engaged in entrepreneurial activities will find the cases both interesting and useful. Since the 1990s, public policy makers and private investors have been creating bio-incubators with the aim of obtaining a foothold in what many presume is one of the hottest future industries. This case study provides an in-depth picture of the biggest UK-based bio-incubator – BioCity Nottingham. The study outlines the history and regional context of the incubator as well as its service portfolio and a profile of its supported firms. The study provides insights into the formation of biotechnology companies, the role of the regional context in shaping business models and the emergence of a science-based business network. As a major implication, Nottingham's location, remote from the epicentre of both science and venture capital in the UK, favours service-based business models. BioCity provides a fascinating opportunity to become acquainted with local conditions of business incubation.

Full textAbstract:
The poultry industry plays a vital role in ensuring the global food supply, and efficient egg incubation is crucial for successful poultry farming. Traditional egg incubation methods have relied on manual monitoring and control, resulting in suboptimal hatch rates and increased labor requirements. However, the emergence of smart technologies has revolutionized the field of egg incubation, leading to the development of the Smart Egg Incubation System. The Smart Egg Incubation System integrates advanced technology, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Machine Learning (ML), to optimize the incubation process and enhance hatch rates. The system employs a network of sensors to monitor and collect real-time data on temperature, humidity, egg turning, and ventilation within the incubation environment. This paper also proposes a commercial incubators website that will help to market incubators available for companies and hold their company profiles, where customers will tend to explore what they need pertaining to incubators and egg incubator accessories, helping to meet the needs of local farmers. This will help small enterprises to grow and get affordable incubators and accessories to eliminate the distance in business affairs for both local farms and big farms. An AI chatbot will also be available specifically designed to assist farmers in monitoring and managing chicken incubators effectively. The chatbot aims to provide real-time information and support to farmers, addressing their needs related to purchasing incubators, understanding incubator capacities, hatching periods, and addressing miscellaneous questions. The AI chatbot acts as a reliable virtual assistant, offering farmers guidance on where to purchase suitable incubators tailored to their specific requirements. By analyzing a comprehensive database of reputable suppliers and their offerings, the chatbot offers recommendations based on factors such as incubator size, cost, features, and customer reviews.

Abstract Ricin is a toxic ribosome inactivating protein (RIP-II) present in beans of the castor plant, Ricinus communis. Its potential as a biodefense threat has made the rapid, sensitive detection of ricin in food important to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Samples of juice, dairy products, soda, vegetables, bakery products, chocolate, and condiments were spiked with varying concentrations of ricin and analyzed using a 96-well format, electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunoassay. Assay configurations included the use of a monoclonal capture antibody coupled with either a polyclonal or monoclonal detector antibody. The samples and detector antibodies were either added sequentially or in combination during the capture step. Using the polyclonal antibody, 0.04 ng/mL ricin was detected in analytical samples prepared from several beverages. By simultaneously incubating the sample with detector antibody, it was possible to decrease the assay time to a single 20 min incubation step with a limit of detection <10 ng/mL. Assays run according to this single incubation step exhibited a hook effect (decrease in signal at high concentrations of ricin), but because of the large signal-to-noise ratio associated with the ECL assay, the response remained above background and detectable. Thus, the ECL assay was uniquely suited for the screening of samples for ricin.

Abstract. Technology Business Incubation Center (TBIC) Puspiptek is a public sector organization that provides business incubation services to startup companies. Communicating the identity of the organization to stakeholders is one effort that can be done to build its own appeal compared to other organizations. This study aims to provide an overview and evaluate the TBIC Puspiptek corporate branding activities through alignment of the vision-culture-image (VCI) model. The method used in this research is descriptive analysis with a qualitative approach, while the research data were obtained through interviews with TBIC management and documentation studies. The results of the study mentioned that TBIC Puspiptek has tried to harmonize its goals, culture and image even though there are still gaps between these components. TBIC has sought to harmonize its identity through the provision of services that foster a spirit of technopreneurship, build a positive communication climate and build good budget management. As for the gaps that arise due to less intense communication with stakeholders, the culture of public sector organizations that are less suited to the private sector as well as the irrelevance of the competencies of incubator managers. The conclusion that can be drawn is that public sector organizations involved in business competition need to do corporate branding in order to have their own appeal compared to other organizations. This research also provides various implications, one of which is to transform the Puspiptek culture as a learning organization.

Business incubators have been highlighted as vital contributors and value-creation organizations to entrepreneurs during their venture developments by offering them multiple resources and specialized support. Notwithstanding, several authors call attention to the significant literature gap concerning research focusing on entrepreneurs’ daily lived incubation experiences to understand their perspectives on incubators. This study aims to explore which aspects are perceived as creating value or limiting the venture development of 16 founders of technology-based startups by interviewing them. Ultimately, it contributes valuable insights about incubation factors that enhance or hinder their overall incubation experience. It suggests that entrepreneurs consider intangible resources and social and relational aspects as the most enriching dimensions of their incubation experiences and concludes with the services they consider to be more important. Moreover, it also reveals negative aspects of the incubation experience, mostly related to the nonregular periodicity of mentoring sessions, training events provided by external entities, and issues while using services provided by external incubators’ partners. Several recommendations for enhancing the incubation experience, managerial implications, and opportunities for further research are discussed.

Relevance. The positive aspects of disinfecting ozonation of hatching eggs allow us to expect successful application of the method not only in large but also in small-scale farms, as well as for experimental and industrial purposes in laboratories and bio-enterprises related to the technological process based on the incubation of a small number of eggs. This determines the importance of expanding the range of ozonizers due to numerous portable devices. There are no clear recommendations for these devices and this causes the need to search for the most effective and harmless modes for the embryo, and schemes of disinfecting ozonation.Methods. The study used fertilized chicken eggs “Hysex Brown” and a portable ozonizer “OZON-OviV”. Ozone concentration 2.0 mg / l. Eggs were treated in a specially made chamber. Technology-1: twice for 30 minutes before incubation and on the 3rd day of incubation. Technology-2: three times for 30 minutes before incubation, on days 3 and 5. The range of studies included: assessment of total microbial contamination (densitometry); identification of microorganisms (MALDI-TOF-spectrometry); biological control of incubation (fertility, hatchability, mortality, developmental abnormalities); assessment of the adequacy of the internal organs (MicroCT); embryo morphometry (weight, length, chest circumference) and calculation of development proportionality indices; histological assessment of the liver.Results. The total ozone concentration during treatment by two methods was 240 mg/l and 360 mg/l, respectively. The disinfecting efficiency of ozonation has been proven, providing a decrease in the level of total microbial contamination by 30% and 40% with double and triple treatment. A tendency to maintain a low total microbial contamination, compared to intact eggs, up to 14 days of incubation has been revealed. The dynamics of the microbial landscape indicate the bacteriostatic effect of ozone in the concentrations used on a wide range of microorganisms. Microtomographic and histological methods confirmed the harmlessness of the technologies used. Along with the more pronounced antibacterial effect of technology-2, the presence of a stimulating effect on the body of the developing embryo was revealed, which determines the preference for its choice.
