Metro Innovation

LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT US:

This design is for an innovative economic development consultancy that produces events like Cincinnati Innovates (www.cincinnatiinnovates.com) and InOneWeekend (www.inoneweekend.org).

We start with a strategic assessment - and then deploy exciting, low-cost tools to create lasting change. We are data-driven, creating and monitoring innovation metrics on a metro scale, applying Fortune 500 best practices to AnyTown, USA.

We offer high-tech solutions and high-energy events that inspire whole metro areas to create more start-ups, resulting in long term economic growth.

We find technology - at universities, small companies, and in garages, labs, and basements all over the city - and we connect that technology and those inventors with local venture investors, commercialization specialists, and tech incubators, stimulating investment and commercialization.

We inspire people - to innovate beyond their vulnerabilities and bring their ideas to life.

We celebrate wins - the tools we use (like Cincinnati Innovates metro innovation contests, and InOneWeekend, where we take 100 people and create a startup in one weekend) are exciting - and newsworthy. We tell the story of innovation and entrepreneurship to create a self-fulfilling prophecy of the American Dream in every city.

Our team is a young, experienced, accomplished, and creative. We're game changers!
