Technology Business Incubation
– a novel approach to business development
Courtesy Jobnet Magazine
The globalisation process is moving up the R&D value chain and in this
direction the present objective is to encourage higher value addition
activities and preservation of natural resources through the
development and application of high technologies such as
biotechnology, new materials; computers, telecommunications and
information techniques and systems, micro-electronics, etc. Creation
of completely new industries requires the application of knowledge
intensive innovative technologies. To apply innovative technologies,
the results of original basic research need to be properly nurtured in
a favourable environment. In India, a major effort has been made in
the past to support basic research covering a wide range of fields. As
a next step, the “incubation” stage should follow where potentials of
new industries are studied. The next step should follow an “innovation
stage”, which helps new industries to grow on a larger commercial
scale. In this “Innovation process”, focus is given to specific high
tech industries. In this direction, the “Technology Incubator” has a
crucial role to play.
A Business Incubator may
be defined as an organisation which offers a range of business
development services and access to small space on flexible terms, to
meet the need of new start-up companies. The package of services
offered by a business incubator is designed to enhance the success and
growth rates of the incubating companies. Business Incubators envisage
a systematic approach to new enterprise development, which can be
described as consisting of the following dimensions:
• Enterprise development;
• A business and technical consultancy network;
• Entrepreneurial synergy;
• Flexible affordable working space;
• Technical Infrastructure; and
• Shared office services
These six dimensions
describe the purpose, benefit, design and management of business
incubators. These dimensions work together to provide the unique
defining character of a business incubation programme. In a Technology
Business Incubator, the focus is on developing knowledge based
companies in the emerging areas of technology.
The JSS Mahavidyapeetha
through the JSS Academy of Technical Education, NOIDA promotes an IT
Business Incubator with financial support from the Department of
Science and Technology, Government of India. The Academy has been
established in a sprawling campus of 28 acres in the institutional
area of NOIDA. The proximity to the industrial area and the Software
Technology Park (STPI) ensures healthy interaction with industries and
access to high-class infrastructural facilities for the establishment
of IT related companies.
