About

Created in 2016 as part of an “Innovation Places” initiative under CTNext, the New Haven Innovation Collaborative involves a local advisory team providing grant funding to catalyze growth in technology and entrepreneurship. It has developed a new process to solicit public input for its economic development strategies, using five broad questions to help determine priorities.

Resources & Services
