ICT for Development

Entries Tagged as 'Business-Incubator'

I just found this new publication by Finland’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs which is giving a good overview of Finland’s current ICT4D strategy and running programmes. Its interesting to see that there is a strong focus on building local innovation capacities, business incubation and linking entrepreneurship to  technologies for the poor (and of course mobile solutions – its Finland after all…). Cheers and happy new year. And here’s the link: http://www.formin.fi/public/default.aspx?contentid=208262&nodeid=34605&contentlan=2&culture=en-US

infodev offers plenty of information, documents and tools on business incubators.
