The San Diego Incubator for Innovation has formed an innovation community comprised of scientists, engineers, artists, entrepreneurs, students, and educators from our binational region. Our goal: to create new products, services, and learning programs targeting water and the mismatch between supply and demand. The San Diego Incubator is one of three incubators in the Art of Science Learning—hosted by the Balboa Park Cultural Partnership, funded by the National Science Foundation, and dedicated to promoting creativity and innovation in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics through thoughtful integration of the arts.
Stay tuned for future public events.
