Technology Incubation Unit
Small and medium enterprises (SME’s) are considered to be one of the principal driving forces of Kenya’s economy. However, SME’s contribution to Economic Development has not realized their
full potential due to enterprise survival, growth and expansion challenges. Business/ Technology incubation will address these challenges by offering infrastructure where on site workshop/office and administrative services, and assistance in various areas such as technical support services, access to financing, counseling, marketing, access to equipment, management assistance etc can be provided to business start-ups in a bid to enhance their rate of success.
It is an interactive developing process which aims to encourage people to start their own businesses, and which supports start-up companies engaging in the development of innovative products and services. Incubation ‘hybrid’ model will be adopted to provide incubators “within walls” and “without walls”. Within walls incubators will be housed at the incubator facility and without walls or virtual incubation, will involve incubatees receiving services at their location. Incubation will mainly offer business development services (BDS) on site and also online.
