Whats the overall goal of the SmartZone?
To create a method and environment to identify commercial opportunities within MSU and other places, and to grow or attract businesses by providing incubator space, entrepreneurial expertise, exposure to potential markets, access to capital, incentives, and long-term profitable locations. The long-term goal is to retain these businesses in the SmartZone area or, at the very least, in the Lansing regional economy.
