Welcome to The Global Institute.

The Global Institute

In response to global demand, The Global Institute on Innovation Districts has been established by a group of influential leaders—researchers and practitioners—active in the growth and advancement of innovation districts. We provide in-depth research, analysis, and consultation on innovation districts around the globe.

Whether in an early stage or more advanced, innovation districts must leverage economic, place, networking and leadership assets to drive long-term economic outcomes. Among its portfolio of work, The Global Institute will create a global network of innovation districts, giving them tailored support and a platform to share ideas and strategies—all to strengthen their position as they navigate crucial decisions, opportunities, and challenges through all stages of their growth and advancement.
