Business incubator plays an important role in cultivating the source enterprises of strategic emerging industries, building an innovation-oriented country, and forming an entrepreneurial upsurge driven by scientific and technological innovation in the whole society. Chinese scholars have conducted abundant academic research in the field of business incubator. Sorting out the research and development of business incubator will be beneficial to further research. This paper summarizes the literature on incubator research from 1999 to 2021 collected in Chinese Social Science Citation Index (CSSCI) database, and analyzes the research status of business incubator and the problems existing in the process of incubator construction and development. It is pointed out that the future construction of business incubator in China can be carried out from the construction of innovation environment, marketization and industrialization, and the promotion of talent mechanism and enterprise system.
