Adirondack Innovation Initiative (A2I)

A project powered by the Adirondack Foundation to build a tech innovation ecosystem and network in the greater Adirondacks. The purpose of A2I is to help more people live in the Adirondack region full-time, with a good job that supports a sustainable lifestyle. We see tech and tech-adjacent jobs as one of the pathways to do that.
