Launched by Brainstorm Weekly on Sept. 10, 2008, Innovate Tampa  
    Bay™ is a grassroots movement that answers that call. It's vision is 
    to  transform  the  Tampa  Bay  Region  into  a  globally recognized 
    Innovation  Hot  Spot  by  2015.  Events  such  as  the  Tampa Bay 
    Innovation  Forum™  and  the annual Innovate Tampa Bay™Summit 
    scheduled for May 7 - 8, 2009 will pave the way. 

    Here  are  some  reasons  why Brainstorm Weekly and other regional 
    leaders believe that this vision is not only possible but also probable:

    Florida

• The #2 Fastest Growing Hi-Tech Hub in the U.S.

• The 4th largest Hi-Tech state in the U.S.

• Has the highest growth rate for Hi-Tech jobs

    Tampa Bay

• State-wide recognition as a Hi-Tech Hub

• Strong university system

• Strong presence in the Healthcare IT space

• Starting to shine in Marine Science Technology

• Located within the unbroken economic powerhouse that 
  connects Tampa, Orlando and Miami (So-Flo Mega Region), 
  which is the 15th largest mega region on the planet. 

    "Innovation  will  be  the single most important factor in determining     America's success through the 21st century. For the past 25 years, 
    we have optimized our organizations for efficiency and quality. Over 
    the  next  quarter  century, we must optimize our entire society for 
    innovation." - NII Summit & Report (Download Executive Summary)
