Abstract

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has gained increasing international recognition for becoming a leading player by successfully reducing its reliance on being a rich oil-based nation towards becoming a global player in commerce and luxury tourism. In doing so, the development of an entrepreneurial ecosystem and proactive encouragement of local policy leaders in the United Arab Emirates has accelerated the growth of the private sector economy with a vision to successfully transit from a mixed free-market economy towards becoming one of the first knowledge-based economies in the region. Based on the analysis of secondary data, the purpose of this chapter is to explore the enterprise and business landscape for business incubators in the United Arab Emirates. This chapter focuses on the historical emergence of the business incubator concept, followed by the historical and contemporary context for business incubators and lastly, concludes with a vision for the future of business incubators in the UAE.
