Watch Now: North FL Innovation Labs Construction Progress |
Tallahassee’s technology sector has experienced fast-paced growth thanks, in part, to the long-term investments made throughout the community by City and County. At the direction of the Blueprint IA Board, OEV invested $2.5 million to support the North Florida Innovation Labs project, which is projected to create over $20 million in total economic impact.
This brand-new incubator will further establish Tallahassee as a leader in technology start-ups and as the place where companies can develop innovative ideas and cutting-edge products to compete in the global marketplace.
