The Annual Report explains the programs provided to client companies and how they have excelled with the Center’s assistance. It highlights the impact that business incubation has made on the Coastal Bend’s economy.
According to the report, as of Dec. 31st, 2014 the Center has assisted 126 companies with their many programs.
