The incubator's developer is Contra Costa Economic Partnership, a nonprofit organization with representatives from Contra Costa County, 11 cities within the county and 23 private businesses.
The newly expanded incubator will support approximately 20 startup companies at a time at below-market rents. Tenants are expected to stay in the incubator for two to four years, after which they presumably will be financially strong enough to move out on their own.
