About the Initiative
ABOUT US
A Regional Movement. A Long-Term Vision.
The Inland Innovation Initiative (III) is a regional innovation organization dedicated to transforming the Inland Empire into one of America's leading ecosystems for entrepreneurship, artificial intelligence, workforce development, civic innovation, and emerging technology.
We believe innovation is more than launching startups.
It's about creating opportunities where students thrive, founders build companies, educators inspire future talent, public leaders solve complex challenges, businesses invest locally, and communities prosper together.
Rather than replacing existing organizations, III connects them.
We work alongside universities, school districts, municipalities, economic development organizations, businesses, nonprofits, investors, and entrepreneurs to strengthen what already makes the Inland Empire extraordinary.
Everything we build supports one mission:
Building the future of the Inland Empire.
