Orlando Health, the private non-profit that runs Bayfront Hospital, recently announced the latest addition to Innovation District: The Orlando Health Neuroscience Institute – Bayfront. With a new facility expected to be fully complete in 2025, the already-in-operation Neuroscience Institute will bring together existing local resources such as Bayfront’s Level 4 Epilepsy and Comprehensive Stroke Centers with additional staff, a new neuro ICU facility and new resources. When complete, the Neuroscience Institute will anchor the Orlando Health Medical Pavilion – Institute Square.
Not so long ago, talent and innovation blossomed in an area just south of Downtown St. Petersburg. City officials and community partners wanted to leverage the capabilities of key institutions—USF St. Petersburg, Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital, and the Poynter Institute, to name a few. The point was to foster collaboration and show our initiatives to the world.
We will host another Trolley Tour and Happy Hour on Friday, June 13th. You will board a trolley with other Innovation District partners and learn about the history and future plans for the area. This tour will feature stops at Albert Whitted Airport, Florida Institute of Oceanography, and The Dalí Museum. The tour will conclude back at the Hub with a networking happy hour.
