That’s the essence of cluster development. And Pittsburgh’s dynamic Health IT environment is perfectly positioned as a hub of global innovation. By developing and promoting the Region’s unique set of Heath IT attributes the initiative will:
Build
a cohesive cluster to expand networks, increase opportunities for entrepreneurs, and draw existing Health IT companies to the region.
Support
start-up companies and university researchers to organically grow the region's Health IT economy and improve competitiveness.
Promote
workforce development and training to address critical staffing issues and enhance economic development.
The Health IT Pittsburgh initiative is supported by a grant from the U.S. Economic Development Administration.
