Work has started on the site at Abercynon, and it is expected to be ready for new owner Venture Wales by spring next year.

The business support organisation received cash from the Welsh Assembly Government (WAG) and Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council to fund the incubator.

Venture Wales' Philip Cooper told icWales:

"We are responding to the needs of business in the area and those looking for a technology-led business incubation centre, enabling us to enhance the existing services."
