Keystone Innovation Zones are designated zones that may be established in communities that host institutions of higher education – colleges, universities, and associate degree technical schools. These zones are designed to foster innovation and create entrepreneurial opportunities. They do this by gathering and aligning the combined resources of educational institutions, private businesses, business support organizations, commercial lending institutions, venture capital networks (including angel investors), and foundations (KIZ partners) In other words, where a partnership of these organizations is formed, a KIZ is possible. In 2004, the JSID was formally awarded a KIZ and designated the Lancaster KIZ Coordinator. Then in 2008 the JSID partnered with The Lancaster Chamber of Commerce & Industry to manage the program. For more information about this KIZ initiative, please contact Ramon Escudero at 717-397-3531 x 164 or at rescudero@lcci.com
