North Miami is giving its innovators a boost.
On Wednesday, the city is launching Nomi Tech, a new initiative.
The program includes entrepreneur education programming through a founder-focused “bootcamp” of workshops facilitated by the Lightship Foundation, which supports minority-led tech startups.
The program, which begins with free a kickoff event from 6-9 p.m. Wednesday, is meant to foster growth while incentivizing tech entrepreneurs to stay and grow their businesses in the city, according to North Miami Vice Mayor Mary Estimé-Irvin.
“Keeping our talents at home while investing in their future,” she said, “is how you invest in your community.”
