The Incubators of Technology-Based Start-ups have potential and significant role in the socioeconomic development of the country. Thus, the study comes to conduct an investigation into a process of incubation of technology-based start-ups in an incubator maintained by an institution of higher education. Its overall goal was to analyze the dynamics of the process, and specific at identifying the factors that led entrepreneurs to seek the incubator support; analyze ongoing projects by identifying the factors that helped or hindered entrepreneurs reach their goals and investigate discontinued projects identifying the factors that motivated their closure. We attempted to contextualize the incubator as a favorable tool to support the development of innovative business. In order to meet the proposed objectives, it was decided to perform an exploratory and descriptive qualitative research. The methodology used was content analysis aimed at a case study, based on information contained in reports and papers produced by the entrepreneurs and the incubator’s management. The instrument used to collect information to entrepreneurs, who together make up the universe of the research, was the semi-structured questionnaire. The survey results signaled that the entrepreneurs who had their incubated projects, both those still in progress and those that suffered discontinuities, received support from the incubator with regard to entrepreneurial training. However, lacked them better support for structuring the business, seeking financing and leasing of space that best favored the development of incubated projects. Another relevant point identified by the research was the need for greater participation of professors and students among entrepreneurs in the actions of support and incentives to the emergence of new business via business incubators.
