The Engine Accelerator combines coworking and lab space, addressing the resource gaps faced by founders of hard tech startups in areas such as climate and health.
According to president Emily Knight, 'That is a highlight of this building that it's very close to talent - people who are still in this area because they just graduated.' This proximity fosters innovation.
The Engine provides specialized equipment that would otherwise be difficult for early-stage companies to access. Founders can utilize top-tier labs without heavy upfront investment.
Knight notes the importance of filling a market need, stating, 'Founders in "tough tech" areas often have difficulty finding stable support and access to specialized lab equipment.'
