Ohio’s Edison Centers are a benchmark for technology based economic development programs for many states in the US because of what we have done so successfully in the past. But in Ohio, the Edison Centers are becoming more recognized for our contribution in laying the groundwork for the future. The Edison Centers have become the nucleus for the commercialization of technology, private investment and for industry advancement in the key technology areas in the state; biosciences, information technology, advanced materials and advanced manufacturing.

With more than 5,000 private sector clients, the Centers not only have an intimate knowledge of the cutting edge technology of many industries but also are positioned to be the optimal partners for Ohio’s inventors and creators such as the Wright Centers of Innovation.
