How We Help

The Enterprise Center cultivates entrepreneurs and emerging basic-industry businesses through consultation services, coaching, coworking and access to state-of-the-art production and office facilities. The WTAMU Enterprise Center facilities include a 31,000-square-foot facility with easy, dock-high delivery access. Initial lease rates are offered at approximately 75 percent of market rate, which allows clients to retain capital in their businesses. Lease rates are then increased approximately 20 percent each year, so when a client graduates, he or she will be accustomed to paying market rates. Nationally, incubator clients will move two to three times during their stays in the incubator, with most graduating in the third year.

Incubation Benefits

The process of incubation is much more than brick and mortar. It’s a dynamic process that provides synergy and support for entrepreneurs. One of the most important benefits the incubator provides is direct contact with other entrepreneurs. Peer-to-peer sharing of successes and challenges helps entrepreneurs know there are other business owners facing similar issues. In addition, as a hub for business resources, the Enterprise Center connects clients to programs, funding opportunities, and entrepreneurial resources that accelerate growth and profitability.

Client Coaching

Entrepreneurial coaching is foundational to the services provided throughout the Enterprise Center. A coach doesn’t tell others what to do or think. Coaching occurs when a person is given an opportunity to think out loud and create possibilities with his or her coach. This creates a protective environment that provides inspiration and motivation, and it ultimately accelerates entrepreneurial development and business growth. Coaching is a catalyzing relationship that accelerates the process of great performance. Through this collaborative parternship, we connect with clients at the deep, personal level of beliefs, values, and vision.
