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.
Join us on our next tour of the Innovation District! Our tour will begin at the HUB, and we will board a trolley with other Innovation District partners. As we travel throughout the District, you will learn about the fascinating history and exciting future plans for the area. We will make several stops for a unique insider view of the research and collaborations underway. Participants are invited to enjoy a networking happy hour back at the HUB, where our tour will conclude.
A group of support organizations, led by the Innovation District and fueled by a grant from Duke Energy, developed our first Tampa Bay Innovation Ecosystem Map in 2023. We aim to continue guiding entrepreneurs to the best possible resources with an updated version.
Josh Rojas of Bay News 9 recently visited the Maritime and Defense Tech Hub, where he was welcomed by CEO Alison Barlow and COO Lauren Bell for a discussion about the building’s future expansion. The Hub is already home to a thriving community of companies and demand continues to grow. To accommodate this momentum, leaders are envisioning Hub 2.0, a second building proposed for the west parking lot.
