Abstract

This article adopts a resource-based view to help understand why some of the incubators are more successful than others in supporting the development of new science and technology-based firms (NSTBFs). We provide this evidence using an original longitudinal data set collected from a decade-old public incubator programme funded after the passage of the 1999 French law on innovation and research.
