Business incubators that are hosted by universities provide researchers and students from first cycle (undergraduate), second cycle (master), and third cycle (PhD) with ample opportunities for self-realization. However, these incubators primarily offer support in advising and developing new projects, such as creating competencies in research and applying new technologies, but they do not fully provide the entrepreneurial culture and leadership skills necessary for young entrepreneurs to turn ideas into reality. In this regard, it is very important to elaborate and create the structure of internal and external processes of the incubator right from the beginning. It is necessary to substantiate in detail the allocation of each element and determine the stakeholders and the type of activity, that form the model for structure and functionality of a business incubator hosted by a university. The purpose of the article is to reveal the methodological aspects oriented towards the formation of the structure and functioning of business incubators located in the academic environment which would allow the organization of internal and external processes for researchers and students of different cycles. It was found that the business incubator located within the University environment is a link within a complex system whose success depends on external factors, such as the macroeconomic situation, legal system in which the incubator carries out its activity and entrepreneurial culture, but also on internal factors, such as: technical-scientific, the abilities of the academic (university) staff, team activity, access to financial sources and programs, etc. The methodology of structuring university business incubators and their internal processes is an important factor in their development, as it provides an opportunity to evaluate and monitor the activities of these incubators.

This chapter presents a technology exploration process designed to support service innovation for information and communication technologies in a university environment. The mission of the technology exploration is to highlight possible applications of new technologies on the basis of prototypes which, following an evaluation phase, are used to develop new services. The exploration process is composed of several stages. In the first stage a number of proposals are generated beginning with the analysis of users’ expectations, best practices and technology developments. In the next stage prototypes for selected proposals are implemented. Only the most viable prototypes are then further developed to maturity, providing a reliable service. This chapter is based on the experience gathered by our team over a period of 18 months. During this period six prototypes have been developed, three of which have been further developed to full maturity. The introduction of a voice over IP service for all the university members illustrates the exploration process.

The purpose of the article is to propose the indicators for the evaluation and monitoring activity, thedeveloping structure and functioning of business incubators located in the academic environment whichwould allow the organization of internal and external processes for researchers and students. The success ofa business incubator in the university environment represents primarily its value for the university and for theeconomic environment and the ability to react quickly to changing conditions inside and outside and developing the entrepreneurial ecosystem at national level. The degree of development of university incubators, thecapacity and quality of their functioning depends not only on the intensity of the support of the environment inwhich they operate, but also on their efficiency through attractiveness, promoting viable businesses and atthe same time being an alternative source of financing and propelling potential entrepreneurs.

The emergence of changes in various aspects of human life due to the global pandemic COVID-19 not only affects large or multi-national companies, but it also has several impacts on SMEs.  Over the numerous barriers and unreadiness of SMEs in facing technological developments, they are forced by circumstances to immediately adapt and digitize their business processes.  Universities, through its richness of research and resources are believed to be appropriate agent to help SMEs overcome this completely new situation.  Universities are expected to be able to generate innovations, providing such opportunities to SMEs to build their competitive advantage to keep sustain in this uncomfortable condition.  One option that can be done is to incubate the SMEs in the university business incubator. However, to date, research that related to university business incubators specializing in managing SMEs is still very limited. Current research on business incubators is dominated by studies of business incubators related to start-ups and new  technology-based firm . Therefore, this research was conducted to develop a conceptual model of university business incubator with the main objective of helping the SMEs to digitize the business they run. This research was conducted using the literature study method and obtained a university business incubator model consisting of four components or stages, namely preparation, pre-incubation, incubation, and post-incubation.
