A science park is usually a piece of real estate that houses research-and-development facilities or knowledge-based enterprises that are closely linked with universities and other institutes of higher education in the area for the purpose of technology transfer and commercialisation.
He says that several factors account for the success of a science park, including the number and quality of enterprises that enter the "incubator programme", the number of tenants, the number and quality of research projects and the number of the park's projects that are commercialised.
