South Shore Innovation is a community of entrepreneurs and innovators. We belive that innovation must be catalyzed into something focused that can go after a tipping point. The best way to catalyze innovation is with people working together in a collaborative environment that is actively nurturing the startup culture. To this end, we are moving toward a vision of opening a physical workspace -- an open collaborative center -- that will allow entrepreneurs and innovators to meet for work, for meetings, for learning workshops and events to stimulate creativity and development.

If you are interested in joining such a community and working in such a center, please fill out the interest form, so we can better understand your wants and needs. Also, join us for our weekly Innovation Round Tables on Thursday mornings.
