The Incubator helped streamline processes for my business such as having the right demographics, making sure my target market is identified, and finding my source of lending. They helped educate me on the issues that will hamper me from opening, making sure that my numbers worked, and knowing what it takes to have my doors open and operational.

Gratitude to Mr. Hall, Mr. Mollohan, and Ms. Rogers for continually making our experience at the Incubator a positive one. The Incubator was a big help as they provided us an occupational space, alleviated technological issues, and helped build our network with other businesses. The incubator also provided some assistance from UNC Pembroke’s student interns.
