DEVELOPING MIDDLE GEORGIA AS THE “SOFTWARE CENTER OF EXCELLENCE”

The final report arising from this initiative will align the endeavors already underway in silos across the region with the efforts of the Robotics Center of Excellence in Columbus and the Cyber Center of Excellence in Augusta.

It will synthesize the findings from the Middle Georgia Innovation Framework and Ecosystem Report and the Innovation Performance & Gap Analysis report, informed by the 3 working groups and subsequent focus groups. This will result in the Middle Georgia Roadmap report which will contain detailed recommendations for a path forward in furthering the development of an innovation ecosystem across the region.

The Middle Georgia Innovation Project will advance the efforts building the workforce that the region needs for the future and build innovation in the Middle Georgia region, which has been identified as an opportunity need.

Finally, the Middle Georgia Innovation Project  will start the process of developing Middle Georgia as the ‘Software Center of Excellence.’
