General Facts about an
Incubator. [Source: National Business Incubation
Association (NBIA)] -- North American incubator client
companies and graduate companies have created about half
a million jobs since 1980. -- Every 50 jobs created by
an incubator client company generate approximately 25
more jobs in the same community. -- In 2001 alone, North
American incubators assisted more than 35,000 start-up
companies that provided full-time employment for nearly
82,000 workers and generated annual earnings of more
than $7 billion. -- Research has shown that for every $1
of estimated public investment provided, the incubator
clients and graduates of NBIA-member incubators generate
approximately $30 in local tax revenue alone. --
Publicly supported incubators create jobs at a cost of
about $1,100 each, whereas other publicly supported job
creation mechanisms cost more than $10,000 per job
created. |

John Muir Trust |
|
|
Info: Is one of the country’s leading
guardians of wild land and wildlife. As a prominent
membership organisation they carry out their charitable
role through the ownership of land, the promotion of
education and volunteer conservation activities.
Established in 1983 the
JMT owns and manages estates on Skye, Knoydart, Assynt,
Lochaber and Perthshire. The iconic peaks of Ben Nevis,
Schiehallion and many of the southern Cuillins of Skye
are protected by the Trust. In addition to their owned
properties, they work in partnership with many other
communities in the management of estates across
Scotland.
Although the Trust's
properties are located in Scotland, they are very much a
national and international body. The environmental John
Muir Award promotes awareness and responsibility for
wild places across the United Kingdom, while overseas
they have strong links with The Sierra Club in the
United States which, like the JMT, celebrates the work,
spirit and legacy of Dunbar born John Muir. |
