CSI Innovation Hub

Week 1 of the Emerging Tech Impact Cohort is officially underway!

Students kicked things off by forming teams, exploring real challenges impacting Staten Island, and beginning conversations around how technology can create community impact.

We’re also excited to introduce our CSI student mentors supporting this cohort throughout the program:

• Mamadou Ba — Computer Science
• Alina Velianyk — Nursing
• Alana McKnee — Nursing

These mentors will help guide collaboration, leadership, and student growth as teams move from ideas to real-world solutions over the next 7 weeks.

This is just the beginning!

Staten Island is stepping into NYC Tech Week , for the first time doing it like this.

We’re opening the doors to our new Innovation Hub with a live Demo Day featuring local and emerging builders showing what they’ve been working on.

Be in the room for what’s next.
