THE CONNECTING POINT

FOR ENTREPRENEURIAL SUPPORT PROFESSIONALS

For more than three decades, InBIA’s International Conference on Business Incubation (ICBI) has been bringing together the people who champion entrepreneurship around the globe to form connections, share ideas, gather resources, and reinvigorate professional perspectives. As the industry has grown and changed, so has the association, with an initial membership of mostly business incubator mangers in 1985, to a current membership representing incubators, accelerators, co-working spaces, super hubs, university entrepreneurship centers, economic development centers and more. The annual conference, ICBI, continues to be the connecting point for people helping entrepreneurs succeed, and we are looking forward to our 33rd gathering next year in Minneapolis, Minnesota!
