Next Happens Here.

Where bold ideas meet billion-dollar outcomes. From lab bench to launch pad, Pittsburgh’s innovation ecosystem is built to grow what’s next.

Building By the Numbers

Innovation

lives at the intersection

Pittsburgh’s economy is shaped by world-class strengths in life sciences, robotics, and artificial intelligence. These industries often overlap — powering breakthroughs in everything from autonomous systems to digital health. With deep research roots and a growing commercial footprint, the region is building what’s next at the intersection of advanced technology and real-world application.

Driving this momentum are three sector leaders: the Pittsburgh Life Sciences Alliance, the Pittsburgh Robotics Network, and the AI Strike Team. Together, they connect startups, researchers, and investors across disciplines — making Pittsburgh one of the only places where a robotics company, a health tech startup, and an AI research lab might share not just a zip code, but a roadmap.
