St. Louis is home to the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency’s first non-classified innovation center. Moonshot Labs opens Friday in the T-Rex business incubator downtown.
The new center will focus on geospatial software and increased collaboration with academia and private sector companies.
“What this can mean for T-Rex and for downtown and our region is a real strengthening of the innovation technology ecosystem in St. Louis, especially around geospatial technology,” said Patty Hagen, president and executive director of T-Rex.
Moonshot Labs goes along with the Geospatial Innovation Center at T-Rex and Hagen said both are attracting national attention from key players in the industry.“We already have 30 geospatial partners, that includes industry partners, nonprofits and so forth, supporting this industry and taking a presence in T-Rex,” said Hagen.
