Newlab is a climate-focused global venture platform that helps technology startups move faster and more efficiently. They have maker spaces, over 100 acres of piloting infrastructure, and lots of industry and community connections to allow startups to get their business running! Originally based in Brooklyn, New York, Newlab has expanded to Detroit and is currently setting up its offices in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Newlab is committed to decarbonization by localizing supply chain systems and keeping production clean and supported here in the States. Newlab and their partner across the street, Michigan Central Station, have a devoted skills team that is committed to upscaling the local labor force creating more jobs for engineers, electricians, and business owners across Detroit and the U.S. as they move to electric energy.

They must be doing something right as over 28% of Newlab’s membership base has relocated from outside of Michigan or in the case of international companies, have opened a North American office in Detroit with Newlab. With over 300 startups and over 1,000 members in their network, Newlab is just getting started. If you have a radical new idea about how technology can improve the world around us, Newlab is a great place to start.
