Bronx Business Tech Incubator

Business incubators tend to cluster where rent is cheap and transit is decent—rare commodities in the Bronx, which makes the Bronx Business Tech Incubator something of an outlier. Housed on the third floor of CUNY on the Concourse at 2501 Grand Concourse, it offers early-stage companies the usual mix of subsidized desk space, mentorship, and networking without requiring a commute to Manhattan. The setup leans on the college’s resources, so tenants get access to student talent, library databases, and occasional pitch nights that draw city agencies and local investors.

Startups accepted into the program can tap into workshops on grant writing, legal incorporation, and digital marketing, all while sharing a floor with peers who are equally unsure whether they’ll make payroll next month. Directions are straightforward: the map places the entrance mid-block between East 193rd and East Fordham Road, above a bank and across from a twenty-four-hour bodega. If you need to confirm application deadlines or tour availability, call them directly—no number is more reliable than the one printed on the door.
