KIE Business Model

Business Incubation

A business incubator is a facility designed to assist businesses become

established and profitable during their incubation period. A business incubator’s main goal is to produce successful firms that

will leave the incubate financially viable and sustainable.

• Incubators vary in the way they deliver their services,

• Highly adaptable, incubators have differing goals, including

diversifying rural economies, providing employment and increasing

wealth and transferring technology;

• Incubator clients are at the forefront of developing new and

innovative technologies

KIE Incubation/Industrial Park Model

One of the critical challenges faced by MSME’s is lack of

affordable and decent workspace.

• KIE provides incubators for entrepreneurs to nurture and mentor

them for success;

• Business incubator models vary depending on their precise

objective and their business environment;

• The ultimate goal of KIE is to develop entrepreneurial culture

among budding innovators;

- cont-

spread across major urban centres which are offered to entrepreneurs

on lease basis.
