ROCHESTER, Minn. - Google is making a move to the Med City, setting up shop at Rochester s Collider Coworking space downtown.
The Collider Foundation, which manages the space, focuses on supporting early-stage entrepreneurs. The tech giant will likely be sharing a roof with a number of local start-ups, raising the prospect of collaboration between organizations.
Collider Foundation Interim Executive Director Jamie Sundsbak says he s looking forward to involving the tech giant in encouraging and supporting local entrepreneurs. He tells KIMT while it is clear Google is focused on collaborating with Mayo Clinic, they do a great job of working with entrepreneurs in other cities.
