Abstract: The study explores the factors that could influence the performance of incubators hosted by Indian universities. Sustainability of these TBIs depends on the determiners of these/performance. The study tries to identify if there exist any differentiator among the TBIs like the sector, public or private TBIs that perform better. The methodology adopted is primary data collection using a questionnaire designed for this purpose. Complete enumeration method is adopted for data collection. The questionnaire was circulated to the incubator heads of 67 incubators and 30 responses were obtained. It was found that number of years of operation and government grant are two significant factors that contribute to the successful outcome of incubators. No significant difference in the incubator performance was found between private and public universities to which the incubator is attached. However, sector specificity is proven to be significant in the success or otherwise of an incubator.
