Growing Innovation Hub 16 Tech Innovation District is a rapidly expanding environment that hosts over 200 innovation-focused entities and employs more than 900 professionals, presenting opportunities for technology partners and service providers aiming to collaborate with a vibrant startup ecosystem.

Strategic Leadership Expansion The recent appointment of Tracey Jackson as vice president of workforce development indicates a focus on community engagement and talent growth, which could open doors for workforce training, educational technology, and community-oriented service providers.

Technology Adoption The launch of the AROUND 3D geospatial map platform demonstrates a commitment to cutting-edge technologies, making it an ideal partner for firms specializing in GIS, map development, and spatial data solutions.

Funding and Growth Potential With a revenue range up to 10 million dollars and a modest initial funding of 40K, there are opportunities to support or invest in the district’s development projects, innovation programs, or startups seeking growth capital and strategic partnerships.

Community and Collaboration As a not-for-profit focused on creating an inclusive innovation community, there is strong potential for engagement with organizations providing diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, community development services, and social impact programs aligned with their mission.
