本研究主要探討自2007年至2011年間影響台灣創新育成中心進駐廠商經營績效的因素。實證結果中育成中心進駐廠商經營績效主要受到市場經驗、進駐育成年數、合約長度、資本額、員工數、跨領域、公司創立型態、育成區域、育成中心類型、負責人性別及負責人學歷等因素影響。本研究發現，能夠得到母公司支援或本身擁有市場經驗的進駐廠商對其經營績效有正向的影響。再者，育成中心進駐廠商若從事跨領域的事業，將負面影響該廠商的經營績效。本研究亦發現，政府型育成中心可能在專業知識或技術上的支援移轉較差，造成知識外溢效果有限，而使廠商經營績效較差。除此之外，進駐廠商負責人若為男性或擁有愈高學歷，對該廠商經營績效可能產生負面的影響。

This study mainly discusses that the empirical analysis of factors in operation performance among incubatees in incubation center of Taiwan from 2007 to 2011.
Results reveal that the operation performance of incubatees are mainly affected by market experience, incubatee duration, contract period, capital, employee, interdisciplinary, innovative firm, incubator region, incubator type, gender, owner’s education and so on. This study finds that the innovative incubatees or the market experience of incubatees have significantly positive impacts on the operation performance. Moreover, if the incubatees engage in interdisciplinary, the result is significant negative. This study also finds that the government type of incubations has significantly negative impact. It is possible that the transference of knowledge and technologies are worse, so this situation causes the limit of knowledge spillovers. Besides, the incubatee owners are male or they have better education has significant negative on the operation performance.
