Survey data reveal that Appalachian incubators have graduated almost 1,300 businesses to date, most of them into their host communities, and have helped to create almost 38,000 jobs. Of these 38,000 jobs, 24,500 are directly attributable to current incubator tenants and graduates, and the remaining 13,500 jobs are indirectly attributable to these same firms.
