How Oklahoma’s Business Incubators Are Fueling Startup Growth for Over 20 Years

The Oklahoma Business Incubator Association (OKBIA) has been supporting the state’s startup scene for more than two decades. With a network of 34 member organisations and 54 professionals, it focuses on growing business incubators across Oklahoma. The group also advocates for policies that help these programmes thrive.

OKBIA plays a key role in connecting incubator leaders and sharing best practices. It holds quarterly meetings where members discuss strategies and introduce new leaders to the economic impact of incubators. These gatherings help strengthen collaboration among Oklahoma’s startup supporters.

OKBIA’s work spans education, recognition, and policy efforts to strengthen Oklahoma’s incubators. By bringing together professionals and celebrating success stories like Threlkeld’s, the association helps sustain a vibrant startup ecosystem. Its long-term presence highlights the ongoing importance of business incubation in the state.
