  • Texas Business Incubators
    Texas Business Incubators www.BusinessInTexas.com Contents Incubator Profiles……………………………………………………………. 1 Index by Specialization and State Region ………………….…….. 53 About this Directory Texas has a strong entrepreneurial spirit that inspires innovative thinking and visionary action. Throughout the state, Texas business incubators provide entrepreneurs with inexpensive startup environments and a range of administrative, consulting, and networking services. These incubation programs come in many shapes and sizes and serve a variety of industry sectors. They are generally managed by economic development agencies, chambers of commerce, local governments, for-profit businesses, colleges, or universities. This directory relies on the National Business Incubation Association’s (NBIA) definition of business incubators, also referred to as accelerators, which are dedicated to serving entrepreneurs and startups. The U.S. Small Business Administration’s (SBA) Small Business Development Centers (SBDC) are not included in this definition, since they serve small businesses in all stages of development. Of the 103 Texas incubators identified in this directory, 61 percent are focused on high tech fields, with specializations ranging from biotechnology, communications, energy, to information technology. Among these high tech incubators, thirteen are solely dedicated to biotechnology, while four others are wholly energy-focused. Many other incubators take a broader approach and work with clients across industries. These multiple-industry incubators account for 33 percent of all business incubators in Texas. By state region, Central Texas accounts for 31 percent of the directory’s incubators, followed by North Texas with 28 percent, West Texas with 20 percent, the Gulf Coast with 18 percent, South Texas with 11 percent, and East Texas with less than one percent.
