Abstract
This paper explores Technology Business Incubators (TBIs) and their chosen Business Incubation Models. The business models of TBIs have been largely ignored or seen as explained
through stratifcation classifcations (e.g. university incubator, virtual incubator etc.). Taking
a qualitative approach, fve next generation TBIs clustered in the Zhongguancun region of
Beijing, the ‘Chinese Silicon Valley’, are analyzed. Framed in the resource-based view this
work contributes to the literature through the exploration of: (1) The strategies implemented
by next generation TBIs in China (2) The business models of these incubators (3) The ft
between each incubator’s business model and their respective strategy. Ultimately this study
disentangles how the varying availability of resources and incubatees’ ability to absorb these
resources guide incubator strategy.
