Besides its sponsorship, Fusion partners and staff will teach workshops on operating a successful business incubator, provide a tour of their downtown Durham Accelerator and host a reception for NBIA guests. NBIA is a national organization designed to advance business incubation and entrepreneurship. Representatives of business incubators from around the country will be right here in our back yard.
Fusion is proud to share the processes and business models that have led to our success.
