TECH HUBS
Even in a digital first world, places and personal connections still matter. The connection, collaboration, and sharing of ideas that shared space makes possible are essential to the creation of new ideas and new companies.
The support and creation of Incubators, Accelerators, Hubs, and Makerspaces that bring resources, education, and above all community to all of Queens is essential to our mission of creating broadly shared prosperity.
The Queens Tech Council is proud to work with local organizations that share our goals and we encourage you to learn more about our partners below.
