About Labs, Incubators, Colonies
On the occasion of welcoming our 4th class of incubator members, GSAPP and NEW INC convene a discussion on changing the status quo in arts, technology, and design entrepreneurship. From business acceleration to advancing discourse, the concept of incubation is not new - Labs, Incubators, Colonies references the environments we create to open space for new ideas. The discussion will engage models of practice and debate the long history and not too distant future of innovation in a series of duets by leaders of the industry.
