The MBIA is an association of 15 business incubators dedicated to sharing resources, information, and best practices among the members with the overall goal of promoting business incubation excellence within all Maryland's incubators. Through leveraging our individual resources, we are able to provide a complete package of valuable business and technical assistance to start-up companies in Maryland, even when certain skills and talent are not available locally. Through sharing information and best practices, we are able to assure a high level of quality within these best of breed incubators. At this time, all incubators within the association are technology based, although other targeted incubators are welcome to apply for membership.
