Economic globalization and the era of information industry to encourage use of human resources college graduates who are competent and have an entrepreneurial spirit. However, not all college graduates have entrepreneurial spirit as desired by such employment. The fact shows that only a small proportion of college graduates who have an entrepreneurial spirit. On the other hand, the economic crisis caused the number of employment does not grow, and even less for bankruptcy. In these circumstances, the college graduates are required to not only capable of acting as job seekers but also must be able to act as the creator of the work. Both require entrepreneurial spirit. Therefore, in order that universities can meet these demands, many such innovations are necessary in building a learning innovation Technopreneurship generation in today's information age.
There is an opinion that, now most college graduates in Indonesia are still weak entrepreneurial spirit. While a small portion who have entrepreneurial spirit, generally because it comes from a family business or trade. In fact indicates that entrepreneurship is a soul that can be learned and taught. A person who has entrepreneurial spirit generally has the potential to be a businessman but is not guaranteed to be an entrepreneur, and entrepreneurs generally have entrepreneurial spirit. Learning process that is technology-based business incubator is designed as an attempt to synergize theory (20%) and practice (80%) of the various disciplines of competence obtained in the field of technology & industry. Business incubator is used as a center of learning activities with a conducive business atmosphere supported by adequate laboratory facilities.
The purpose of the implementation of innovation activities of technology-based business incubator is to foster entrepreneurial spirit to develop students as learners. While the benefits gained for the institution fulfills its mission is to build institutions in Technopreneurship generation and increasing the relevance of education with industrial world.

The process of globalization is happening right now, demanding changes in the Indonesian economy from resourced based to knowledge-based. Based resource that relies on the wealth and diversity of natural resources generally produce basic commodities with little added value. One key to the creation of knowledge-based economy is the existence of technology entrepreneurs or abbreviated techno-preneur who pioneered the new business by relying on innovation. Hightech business is a classic example of a business that was pioneered by technopreneurs.
Technology business world today is dominated by the sectors of information technology, biotechnology and new materials as well as a variety of business development based on technological innovation.

The number of small technology-based medium (UKMT) in Indonesia is growing rapidly. The trend increase is more driven by the limited job opportunities in major industries under the influence of the economic crisis and begin to rise Technopreneurship among engineering graduates of higher education.
In the era of globalization, competition will increasingly stringent, so it is necessary policies and activities that can directly improve the competitiveness UKMT at a later date. Difficulties and obstacles in the UKMT in Indonesia in developing its business is weak marketing channels, technology support and limited capital. Moreover, for entrepreneurs, this issue will appear larger and become large enough constraints in developing their business.

In order to participate in helping and supporting activities directly UKMT entrepreneurs in particular activities, it is deemed absolutely necessary in order to build a container that has a facility that can directly support operational activities, promotion, marketing, production technology consultancy, investment and capital. With these facilities, especially UKMT expected start-up entrepreneurs in Indonesia to develop its business more quickly and focus.

It also could be the arena to improve the quality of human resources in the mastery of science and technology, so that we can prepare a powerful force amid global competition. start from ourselves to do something to make our education can be better quality, because it will concerning the future of our children and also the Indonesian nation.
