Summary/Abstract: The Starting Platform Program is one of the leading EU programs to support innovative entrepreneurship dedicated for Eastern Poland. After the pilot phase, the main phase of the Program is implemented. Startups can obtain incubation support from one of six Platforms, followed by a grant of 1 million PLN for the implementation of an innovative business venture. The purpose of the article is to evaluate the effectiveness of activities and the organisation of startup incubation processes carried out on the basis of one of the Starting Platforms – “Start in Podkarpackie” – a model solution in the organisation of startup support processes in the so-called incubation. A research hypothesis has been defined that startup incubation processes implemented in the model designed in Starting Platforms are not a very effective way of supporting the development of innovative ventures. The hypothesis was verified on the basis of a model analysis of the organisation of these processes illustrated by the example of the “Start in Podkarpackie” Platform.
