Incubator

An Incubator is a program or organization that supports very early-stage startups with resources such as workspace, mentorship, product guidance, customer introductions, and sometimes small amounts of capital. Unlike accelerators (often cohort-based and time-boxed), an Incubator may be more flexible in duration, and an Incubator can be sponsored by corporates, universities, or investors.
