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.
