Abstract

The aim of this study is to evaluate the Brazilian experience in overcoming the difficulties of technology-based companies in incubators in order to propose improvement actions using incubators in Brazil as reference. The adopted methodology prioritizes a qualitative focus. Research is characterized as descriptive-exploratory and is conducted in the form of a multi-case study. Results allowed the identification of difficulties of companies residing in incubators and relevance in overcoming these difficulties based on four types of restrictions: financing, management, production and commercialization, and the subsequent proposal of elements that allow improvement actions. The study contributes to the management practice by proposing a set of improvement actions that can be adopted by companies and incubators to enhance performance.
