A study conducted for the U.S. Department of Commerce Economic Development, prepared by Grant Thornton LLC further reinforces what those in the industry already knew, incubator programs provide a better return on Federal economic development investment dollars than commercial structures, roads and transportation, industrial park infrastructure and community infrastructure. The study concluded that business incubators create an average of 46.3-69.4 jobs per $10,000 EDA investment. The next best category of commercial structures could only muster 9.6-13.4 jobs per for the same $10,000.
