Incubation: A Process not a Place
The Tampa Bay Technology Incubator (TBTI) is one vehicle through which USF CONNECT grows successful companies. TBTI supports technology research as a catalyst for economic development and advocates the creation and development of facilities for high-technology companies and related support functions.
One way TBTI is able to assist is by providing access to critical costly research equipment. Many companies originate in the community and seek our support to evolve their concepts to commercialization.
Measuring Success
TBTI successes to date include:
- 40+ companies incubated
- 300+ jobs generated
- 130+ partnerships with USF Faculty
- Funding for 200+ USF students
