The St. Pete Downtown Partnership, an anchor organization of the Innovation District, recently held their Development Summit.  They tackled the important question of how to balance sustainable growth in our remarkable city.  They also sought to inspire us about the potential for public spaces with the insights shared by Urban consultant Dan Biederman who is known for transforming Manhattan’s Bryant Park.  Kudos to the Downtown Partnership for this important discussion.  Now....its time to imagine the possibilities for Poynter Park in the Innovation District.

Thank you to all the ARK Innovation Center and Maritime & Defense Tech Hub tenants who joined us for Rowdies Networking Night with the Chamber! It was one of our first social events together and it rocked. We loved connecting outside the office and cheering on the team from the Bayshore Lounge.
