About Global Midwest Alliance
Representatives of more than 150 companies and institutions -- including major academic research institutions, federal, state and local governments, economic development organizations, venture capital companies, trade associations, banks and businesses -- called for the creation of an entity to provide connectivity, benchmarking, marketing and support for technology commercialization in the region.
Looking at “best in class” models around the world, they found that the CONNECT model pioneered by San Diego CONNECT was successful at transforming not only the San Diego region, but had been successfully implemented in other regions around the world.
After substantial study and consultation with Global CONNECT, the Global Midwest Alliance was formed to mine the regions’ under-tapped research and other formidable assets to provide the foundation for sustained economic development.
Global Midwest Alliance is the only business-led economic development group for the Midwest region.
