Newly Restructured Incubator Program

Overview

The Incubator Program’s purpose is to develop and support Florida State students interested in starting or growing a business. Services are provided at no charge to students, and they include assisting new student business owners in developing a working business model, establishing their companies, and progressing to the point of independent operations.
