High-Tech Incubators Spring Up in Southland

By KAREN KAPLAN

It’s been a good month so far for high-tech business incubators in the Los Angeles area. Real estate investor Arthur Herring said he and Management Group of Torrance will open a Digital Coast Media/Technology Incubator in Redondo Beach within 60 days. The incubator will be in Herring’s AllInternetBuilding.com, which has been outfitted with high-speed Internet connections. Meanwhile, the Hollywood Economic Alliance announced that it received a $100,000 grant from the California Trade & Commerce Agency for its Digital Coast Incubator. The grant will be used to provide seed money to new-media start-ups. Those developments followed the news that longtime Disney Internet chief Jake Winebaum and EarthLink Network founder Sky Dayton will launch their own incubator in Santa Monica and call it ECompanies.
