What incubatees say
“Just having someone to report to makes us more organized and more articulate about what we are doing. Because our mentors are with us, we are better.” J. Smith - Karuta Open source Portfolio
“The incubation process functions as a pointer to look at things that otherwise might have been overlooked. The fact that one mentor wasn't familiar with the project was useful.” N. Matthijs - Open Academic Environment
