launched by two Massachusetts Institute
of Technology graduates and has expanded
to several U.S. and international locations
to provide incubator and coworking
space, plus shared wet lab amenities.
“Those lab amenities for life sciencesrelated
work (are) instrumental to getting
young businesses off the ground because,
otherwise, lab space is scarce and very
expensive to develop,” says Segar. “CIC
anticipates having space in the Aggie
Square lab buildings and the lifelong
learning building. It’s a game changer for
UCD and Sacramento, and (it’s) one of the
partnerships we’re most excited about.”
Louis Stewart, chief innovation officer
for the City of Sacramento, acts as
liaison and project manager, coordinating
meetings and communications, speaking
engagements, and representing the city
on behalf of the project. “Aggie Square
has the potential to be a tremendous job
creator, both directly and indirectly,” says
Stewart.
