We no longer just be depending on pure teaching and academia but rather research and not just standard research that can be published and put on the shelf. Incubators have come into effect to eliminate placing results of research to be placed on the shelves and making them cooked. Incubators are like kitchens of ideas and those with those who have these ideas, we call them inventors.
