- Abstract
[Objective] Boasting the intermediary between start-ups and external partners, university business incubators (UBIs) aid start-ups in establishing friendly partnerships with suppliers, providers of professional services, financial and funding institutions or research institutes, etc. as a means of promoting the growth, innovation agglomeration and economic development of new enterprises. By drawing the visual knowledge map of the development of UBIs, we can reveal the research frontier, trend, and development law of UBIs. [Methods] Taking 744 publications concerning UBIs in the Web of Science database source journals from 1995–2022 as the object, CiteSpace software was used to extract fields and visually display the number of publications, time, region, and authorship mapping, as well as keyword co-occurrence and clustering mutability. [Results] The study of UBIs has drawn high attention from scholars; company growth, entrepreneurial development, and innovation agglomeration constitute research hotspots in this field. In recent years, the research directions of UBIs have grown diversified, making sustainable incubator development, management model innovation, knowledge transfer, innovation ecosystem, and technology transfer crucial directions for future research.
