In a coworking space, your company exists. In an innovation community, your company evolves.

At the MIC, we provide the space, and we also speed the pace of achievement. Mentorship, knowledge, and connections help companies from over 18 industries disrupt the marketplace, develop their ideas, and discover the right pathways for their business goals. Many companies located at the MIC are small, minority, and veteran-owned businesses enterprises, so their perspectives are diverse and their offerings are, too. Membership elevates their businesses, and we hope it does the same for you.
