This past month, CIC celebrated the grand opening of CIC Philadelphia at 3675 Market Street, our first building in the City of Brotherly Love.
Over 3,000 attendees filled the halls among activations by 35 community organizations and a collaborative display of Philly creativity with local performers, food startups, breweries, and wineries sharing their crafts.
In partnership with University City Science Center and Wexford Science + Technology, CIC Philadelphia combines flexible office, event, and lab space in a community hub of innovation.
CIC Philadelphia represents the company’s sixth campus worldwide, with more locations slated to open in cities including Providence, Warsaw, and Tokyo in the coming months and years.
Entering its first full calendar year in operation, CIC Philadelphia is home to the 2019 Social Impact Cohort, a select group of local nonprofits addressing social issues just outside our doors.
This program provides space, resources, and networking opportunities designed to accelerate participants’ impact. Organizations include Coded By Kids, the Collective Success Network, and Open Access Philly.
“We’re captivated by Philadelphia already,” says Sally Guzik, Senior Community Engagement Lead at CIC Philadelphia. “Looking ahead to 2019, we’ll focus on deepening our partnerships and programs for entrepreneurs, working alongside the Science Center, and BioLabs for 3675 Market to become a porous hub of connectivity for current and future entrepreneurs.”
