This report presents the main findings of a new survey of 170 European business incubators. It finds that a large share of surveyed incubators began to operate in the last 5 years. The survey suggests that upwards of 5,500 people work in Europe's business incubators, offering services to around 24,000 firms. Most incubators offer a range of options that reduce starting-up risks, going from flexible lease terms to risk management tools. External financing shortages regularly affect incubated firms, which often rely on public support from national and EU programs
