Dubbed the Block Venture Hub, the space is set to provide resources for entrepreneurs of any stage. The three-story facility features the EntreLab for idea generation in the basement, a startup incubator on the main floor and a scaleup incubator on the second floor.
The public celebrated the launch via an open house Friday afternoon. To read more about the space, click here.
