Feasibility Study for a Screen-based Content Producers Business Incubator Program

Feasibility Study for a Screen-based Content Producers Business Incubator Program was undertaken by Centennial College to determine the need among independent documentary television producers in the Toronto region for a business incubator. A survey of independent producers as well as focus groups, interviews and incubator case studies found that existing business training models do not meet the needs of this sector. Components of a proposed business incubator are outlined, including opportunities for networking and mentorship, shared office space and equipment and business and financial education. July 3, 2012.
