Innovate Memphis

We develop initiatives, nurture partnerships and incubate solutions to move Memphis forward. We work with diverse stakeholders to collaborate across public, private and non-profit sectors to develop and deliver bold solutions to pressing urban challenges and deliver impactful, sustained change. Innovate Memphis currently works in four main priority areas, City Innovation Projects, Reimagining the Civic Commons, Transportation and Mobility, and we serve as the National Neighborhood Indicators Partnership partner for the region, delivering data resources, analysis, and capacity-building to local place-based organizations. City innovation projects have included innovations in city service delivery, homes and neighborhoods, blight, parks advocacy, and reducing demand on emergency medical resources. We previously incubated MEMFix, MEMShop, MEMMobile programs to improve neighborhood economic vitality.
