Start-up America's Students Act

A business incubator is a facility primarily used to provide space where start-up businesses in operation for under 4 years with 10 or fewer employees:
- share space, support staff or services, physical resources, or overhead expenses; and
- receive technical assistance, financial advice, or business planning services.
