The incubator will join others already in operation, with the hope the companies will stay in the county.
Montgomery County is close to picking a partner to help create a new incubator in Silver Spring focused on tech and media, according to the head of Montgomery County's relatively new economic development corporation.
The county has narrowed its list to two potential candidates to turn the Silver Spring Innovation Center, which is underutilized, into an incubator offering work space, programming and a chance to grow businesses in the county, said EDC CEO David Petr. The hope is to pick a finalist in about 30 days.
