Abstract
This study is sought to discover contributing factors to the incubation performance of Malaysian technology incubators. Studies have shown that not all incubation programme are performed in Malaysia. Incubation performance is vital because it indicates how well an incubator is functioning and being managed. Six technology incubators in Malaysia were studied with grounded theory methodology. Six participants who are the prime interface for the incubatees and also responsible for managing the operations, planning, marketing and development of the Malaysian technology incubators were interviewed. As a result, findings from semi-structured interviews and with support from a literature review were merged to form a foundation for the development of conceptual framework. Results indicated that there are five factors contributing to the incubation performance of Malaysian technology incubators which are the incubator management team, services, incubatees’ selection, funding and networking. This study provides a basis towards immediate and effective implementation policy to create an improved incubation model. The results of this study may improve the quality of Malaysian technology incubators in the future particularly to stimulate and become one of the key pillars to boost Malaysia’s economy along side with transforming the incubatees themselves.
