At the StARTup Incubator, we help artistic entrepreneurs as well as early stage art-based manufacturing companies with their growth and development. We provide a wide range of assistance including affordable space, shared support and business development, for a nominal fee.  Our goal is to foster creativity-oriented businesses that will create not only wealth and jobs, but grow and diversify the cultural and economic base of Northwest Pennsylvania.

StARTup operates in close cooperation with Edinboro University of Pennsylvania, a leading art and design university in the United States. It is also a member of the National Business Incubation Association, which is the world's leading organization in advancing business incubation and entrepreneurship.

WHAT IS AN INCUBATOR, ANYWAY?


Incubators are nonprofit organizations that nurture the development of entrepreneurial companies, helping them to survive and grow during their start up period.  The goals of a business incubator are to produce successful companies that will leave the program financially viable and operationally freestanding.  Incubators offer their clients business support services and resources tailored to their needs.

WHO DO WE SERVE?

We are dedicated to nurturing artists and creative entrepreneurs who are in the early stages of creating a business based around their craft.
