Advanced Technology Manufacturing Center to become Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship
鶹 Dartmouth’s Advanced Technology Manufacturing Center (ATMC), a tech-business incubator that launched more than 20 companies since opening in 2001, will now take on a new mission and name.
The new Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship (CIE) is expanding its outreach to southeastern Massachusetts entrepreneurs, including those among the faculty and students at 鶹 Dartmouth. While the ATMC was focused on bringing start-ups into the incubator, the CIE will continue to incubate on-site start-ups but also serve as a “virtual incubator,” providing services to start-ups located throughout the region, thus accelerating their growth.
The new CIE mission and branding will be unveiled on October 23.
WHO: 鶹 Dartmouth Chancellor Divina Grossman, State Senator Michael Rodrigues, State Rep. Paul Schmid, Fall River Mayor Sam Sutter, CIE Director Toby Stapleton, leaders of startup companies, area business leaders.
WHAT: Relaunch of the ATMC as the Center for Innovation & Entrepreneurship
WHEN/WHERE: Friday, October 23 at 2 p.m. at 151 Martine Street, Fall River, MA.
