The University of New England (UNE) will establish a new Business Innovation Hub in the centre of Armidale by mid-2021, as a part of a commitment stronger more purposeful community engagement.
Armidale Regional Council (ARC) will provide the former Armidale War Memorial Library building which UNE will renovate to locate UNE’s SMART Region Incubator (SRI) in the CBD.
The SRI will be responsible for running the day-to-day operations the new facility and will offer programs to engage and inspire new and existing founders of businesses and build the enterprise capacity of the community.
“The Business Innovation Hub will provide a focal point for a range of activities that will encompass existing businesses as well as new start-ups,” said Armidale Mayor Ian Tiley.
