Reference excerpt

The NanKang Biotech Incubation Center (NBIC; Chinese: 南港生技育成中心) is a biotech incubator formed by the SME Foundation of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, ROC and managed by the Development Center for Biotechnology. The incubator focuses on the initiation and development of biotech startups with an emphasis of the biotech industry including pharmaceuticals, medical devices and applied biotech. NBIC is a model incubator in biotech industry, different from the university affiliated incubator, supported by the SME Foundation. As of 2015, the incubator has 21 Class I client companies, 1 Class II, and 20 Class III. Beside office space, the incubator provides wet laboratory with instruments and facilities.

History NanKang Biotech Incubation Center (NBIC) is based in Taipei's Nankang Software Park. Opened on 27 August 2004, it occupies 1,200 ping (4,000 m2; 43,000 sq ft) of space. The land was leased from The opening ceremony was hosted by Ho Mei-yueh, then Minister of Economic Affairs. Attending guests included Yuan T. Lee, then president of Academia Sinica and Ma Ying-jeou, then Mayor of Taipei.

Recognition NBIC is accredited by the National Business Incubation Association (NBIA) since 2011 as a Soft Landings incubator. A full article reported the incubator extensively in The Business Incubator, pp34–39, Volume 1 Issue 1, June–September 2012.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with NanKang Biotech Incubation Center

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what NanKang Biotech Incubation Center claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to NanKang Biotech Incubation Center before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about NanKang Biotech Incubation Center ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of NanKang Biotech Incubation Center

In research: NanKang Biotech Incubation Center appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses NanKang Biotech Incubation Center in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: NanKang Biotech Incubation Center is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 2004 establishments in Taiwan, Biotechnology in Taiwan, Business incubators, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for NanKang Biotech Incubation Center outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
