Innovation Resource Center

The Northwest Economic Council is currently working with several regional partners to create the Innovation Resource Center (IRC). The IRC is a business support process that speeds up the successful development of companies by providing entrepreneurs with an array of targeted resources and services such as business mentoring and coaching. The IRC is being developed to provide comprehensive entrepreneurial training and mentoring for early stage innovative business entrepreneurs including those focusing on engineering and manufacturing, technology and software, and green and sustainability.  The IRC will provide an array of resources and services that will create and retain jobs in the County.

Whatcom County was recently granted $35,000 in WA State CERB funding to further develop the NWEC's Innovation Resource Center!  For additional details please click here.
