make the Incubator another gem in the Stony Brook crown jewels.
Since then, over 70 companies have been associated with the
Incubator in one-way or another. By the end of 2003, 44 companies
had successfully graduated from the program and were still
in business, generating more than $2.5-billion into the national
economy and employing more than 500 employees. A 2003 study

Certified Technology Parks spark growth for the future
By Pat Callahan
It was three years ago in May that the state of Indiana launched
the Certified Technology Park program by christening Purdue
Research Park as the state's first economic development hotbed.
A product of the 2002 tax restructuring legislation, the program
has since expanded to 13 other locations, from Evansville to
Fort Wayne and Terre Haute to Richmond.
The reason for creating the parks is obvious: Indiana must
continue to move beyond its rust belt heritage and encourage
the development of high-tech, high-wage and high-growth industries
in order to remain competitive in the 21st century. While it
would be nice to think we could attract large, established
firms to our state, realistically, we must expect a lot of
our economic growth to come from homegrown businesses.
In creating the Certified Technology Park program, the state's
economic development leaders hoped to create places where entrepreneurial
and innovative companies could take root, develop their products
and technologies, and prosper. To make this possible, they
focused on some basic tactics: leverage and support the enthusiasm
and innovation of entrepreneurs; create technologically advanced
environments where high-tech businesses can prosper and spur
development in their communities; and facilitate collaboration
between the state's academic and corporate sectors, making
it possible for university research advances to translate into
commercial ventures.

Economic Growth:
When knowledge is produced,
the benefits not only accrue to the producer, they “spill
over” to the local economy. State Policy: State and
local policy makers are key in creating the environments
that encourage innovation. Through targeted investment in
the building blocks of knowledge infrastructure, states can
draw private capital to invest in the building of regional
strength in science and innovation and act as catalysts for
regional and national economic growth.
Since the passage of Bayh-Dole, American universities have
spun-off more than 2,200 firms to commercialize innovations
born of research, created 260,000 jobs in the process and
now contribute $40 billion annually to the American economy.
