Project Recipient: Center for Economic Growth

The Center for Economic Growth’s Watervliet Innovation Center will create jobs and stimulate economic recovery by enabling early stage emerging technology companies to launch profitable, sustainable businesses in clean technology, homeland security and other high potential technologies. By supporting innovative technology companies, CEG will create innovation based jobs, decrease dependence on foreign energy supplies, reduce greenhouse emissions and serve the country’s homeland defense and national security interests.

The Watervliet Innovation Center delivers this assistance for the entire region by providing facilities to house businesses, technology commercialization support to define a viable path to bringing the technologies to market and business support to ensure the ongoing sustainability and growth of these enterprises.
