Innovation Studio has operated Venture Café Cambridge Thursday Gatherings since 2010, which began as an experiment by Cambridge Innovation Center(CIC) to connect innovators and entrepreneurs. In addition to our signature Thursday Gathering programming, we have operated community spaces such as District Hall Boston, which opened in 2013 as the world’s first free-standing civic innovation center and public workspace, and the Roxbury Innovation Center, which opened in 2015 as a landmark project for the City of Boston and first urban innovation center with a mission to foster local economic development in the heart of Nubian Square. And since August 2019, Innovation Studio has operated Venture Café Providence and District Hall Providence, which was the result of a collaborative public-private partnership with the State of Rhode Island, Wexford Science & Technology and CIC, to create a gathering space and programming space to connect innovators to increase Rhode Island’s innovation output. Innovation Studio’s mission is to democratize innovation by cultivating relationships and providing resources for anyone to successfully launch and grow a business. In addition to offering creative storytelling studio space for the innovation community, Innovation Studio looks to expand its free programming to drive further economic development in the Gateway Cities of Massachusetts and other communities in Rhode Island, explore partnerships to create, and activate community spaces throughout New England.
