SUNY Fredonia president Dennis Hefner was joined by federal, state and regional officials, who together broke ground on the construction phase of the new SUNY Fredonia Technology Incubator, a $5.7 million economic development effort. The incubator, a partnership with the city and Chautauqua County, will offer a variety of resources to up to 30 start-up companies with a technology focus and a commitment to WNY. The project is already operating within a temporary facility, but the completion date for this 21,000 s/f, two-story permanent structure is targeted for the fall of 2009. Located at 214 Central Ave., the incubator will be an extension of the main SUNY Fredonia campus. Tags:
