Partnered Growth Historical collaborations with universities and regional ecosystems (Baldwin Wallace University, Global Cleveland) and the launch of The Cleveland200 fund suggest opportunities to co-sell with academic and regional partners, offering joint programs, funding-enabled pilots, and sponsorships to attract early-stage startups.
