Urban Innovation Center

The Urban Innovation Center is operated by the Black Metropolis Technology Commission, an entity of the Bronzeville Community Development Partnership. The Commission believes that Bronzeville is poised to become the city’s Tech Hub and that it was critical to enhance the community’s position in the innovation economy. The Center's business incubator model is called T3: Tourism, Technology and Transportation. It has developed three key products and services for the incubator; Sustainable Bronzeville designed to create a critical mass for a collection of urban sustainability strategies; VisitBronzeville.com a digital heritage entertainment network and the State Street Information Technology Corridor a smart community convergence plan.
