New Haven Grows When Opportunity Reaches Everyone.
The Center brings residents, entrepreneurs, institutions, and information together to build pathways toward ownership, mobility, and shared prosperity.
Inclusive Growth Means More New Haven Residents Can Participate In, Contribute To, and Benefit From the City's Economic Future.
The Center connects entrepreneurs, residents, institutions, and research so inclusive growth strategy becomes practical, local action — support that leads to action, action that gets convened, convening that connects people, connections that get shared.
