The Harvard Innovation Labs is at the center of a thriving innovation ecosystem in Greater Boston, serving students and alumni from all 13 Harvard schools and facilitating connections across the city and around the world.

Connecting Innovators at Harvard and Beyond

In addition to being Harvard's hub for innovation and entrepreneurship, our proximity to other elite universities, accelerators, and incubators across Greater Boston means connecting is easier than ever. We regularly host convenings to bring together innovators from across the city.

Leading Innovation

From the beginning, the vision [for the i-lab] was not just to create a space for students with ideas and entrepreneurial instincts—it was to help foster a spirit of entrepreneurship across the University.
