The term incubator suggests it is just for new startups, but they actually cater for a wide range of startups, offering:

• Workspace• Mentoring• Workshops• Shared services and resources• Access to a startup community

Startups can typically stay for up to two years to leverage the cheaper cost overheads in office space and shared services.

An accelerator is designed to rapidly grow startups and prepare them for further funding. It offers

everything an incubator does plus:

• Structured programme• Exposure to Angel and VC Networks • Access to specific industries and

influencers• Use of specialist technology and data.
