The new GateWay Community College Center for Entrepreneurial Innovation.
GateWay Community College?s Center for Entrepreneurial Innovation will hold its formal grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony at 10 a.m. March 7.
The new center is a business incubator for early-stage and startup companies that will offer business development services, educational programming and management resources. Its facility is on the GateWay campus on the southeast corner of 38th and Van Buren streets.
The goal is to help companies grow and commercialize their business, ?championing small business job creation for the region,? according to a statement.
Planned speakers include GateWay Community College President Eugene Giovannini, Economic Development Administration Representative Jacob Macias and Center for Entrepreneurial Innovation Executive Director Jeff Saville. Jasper Welch is also expected to speak in one of his first public appearances since being named president and CEO of the National Business Incubation Association.
The 11 client companies of the new center will also be featured, representing a wide range of industries, including bioscience, clean energy and software.
?Our clients are the reason we exist,? said Saville in a statement. ?What better venue than an open house in front of stakeholders and the general public to showcase these entrepreneurs who have dedicated themselves to positively impacting jobs in the state and the region.?
The new center features more than 30 offices, wet lab and light manufacturing spaces, state-of-the-art presentation technology, a client server room and meeting areas.
It?s a partnership between the city of Phoenix, the Economic Development Administration and the Maricopa County Community College District, along with other public and private partners.
