An Overview of Business Incubation in Vermont
Mike Quinn will give a brief overview of business incubation in the state of Vermont. He will highlight various incubators around the state and the Vermont Business Incubation Network that is now being formed. Following his talk, Tom Rainey will present details on one of Vermont's newest incubators, The Vermont Center for Emerging Technologies (VCET).
The Vermont Center for Emerging Technologies (VCET)
The Vermont Center for Emerging Technologies is a targeted small business development program designed to foster the success of new high-growth, high technology firms in Vermont. VCET will be located in the Burlington area. The program will offer selected early-stage businesses a menu of traditional incubator services, such as flexible rental space, office equipment and administrative support services, and business education and workshops. The unique feature of the VCET program is the ability to link client companies to specialty laboratories and equipment, technology licensing, private investment capital resources, and an extensive network of faculty, staff, and student interns and well-positioned alumni from the state’s leading academic institutions. Thomas Rainey is the President of VCET and will discuss the current status of this initiative.
