By analyzing the data collected throughout the research process, this study aims to provide valuable insights into the effectiveness of the program in supporting emerging entrepreneurs in underserved communities. In conclusion, the research project on the development of a startup incubator program to support emerging entrepreneurs in underserved communities holds great potential for driving economic development and creating sustainable opportunities for marginalized populations.
