DevelopSpringfield is establishing the Springfield Innovation Center (SIC) in the downtown Springfield area. After extensive research including site visits and interviews with professionals and SIC stakeholders, our team has produced a detailed set of recommendations for operationalizing the innovation center. Included, are plans to make full use of the center’s kitchen space, implement a makerspace in a building attached to the center, and market the center. Ultimately, these recommendations will serve to promote entrepreneurial activities at the center.
