Technology-led Economic Development is about getting practical about the role of economic developers and community stakeholders in building an innovation ecosystem. Experience shows us our community relies on EDOs to innovate and lead. EDOs should have a robust technology-based economic development plan.​

In this course, you will be introduced to the legal and financial framework for bringing innovation to market, including technology protection and product licensing. Learn how to partner with government, industry, higher education, and the private sector to create a highly integrated network of technology and innovation. Multiple case studies will be presented to explain the role of business incubators, accelerators, venture capital, angel networks, gap financing, and more.
