On Thursday, the City of Ventura is formally launching a new incubator, the Ventura Ventures Technology Center (www.v2tc.com), targeted at hightech businesses. The incubator so far includes startups Lottay , Geodelic , and a number of other Internet and other technology firms. What is the Ventura incubator?
Business incubators for sharing services were all the rage back in the days of the dot-com bubble (700 for profit, many more non-profit). Incubators I hear mentioned most often include YCombinator , led by Paul Graham in Silicon Valley, and TechStars , located in Boston, Boulder, New York City, and Seattle.
Business incubators for sharing services were all the rage back in the days of the dot-com bubble (700 for profit, many more non-profit). The goal of most business incubators today is to strengthen the local economy, and commercialize new technologies. However, many research and technology parks also house incubation programs.
We''re continuing to feature reflections on the last year from movers and shakers in the local hightech community, and today have thoughts from Gerhard Apfelthaler , who is Dean of California Lutheran University''s School of Management , which has been very active in Ventura County helping to promote startup and entrepreneurial activity.

VC funding is definitely back from the constipation that was 2009 replete with frothy valuations chasing dreams of the next Facebook, Groupon or Zynga. Let me preface by saying I obviously have a vested interest in being wrong about tough times ahead but as the old saying goes, “hope for best, plan for the worst.”.
One of the most frequent questions from hightech startups is: where''s my exit? That pace has definitely slowed down a little bit. I think the incubators have a lot to do with it. an incubator in Singapore, and we do a dozen or so investments a year. For good companies, it''s a great exit opportunity.
