Office of InnovationHQ

A space where students from all five schools and the college can meet, work, brainstorm, and both organize and participate in various events.

More than just "a building," iHQ is the beating heart of the innovation and entrepreneurship (I&E) community at MIT. It's the culmination of a decade of careful planning, painstaking reconstruction, and thoughtful community-building. Located in the heart of Kendall Square, often described as "the most innovative square mile on the planet," iHQ creates the opportunity for world-changing impact, not only at MIT but also throughout the Greater Boston innovation ecosystem and well beyond.

InnovationHQ provides a home for MIT’s thriving community of innovators & entrepreneurs, supporting all who pursue ideas with a passion for world-changing impact.

iHQ is a space where MIT students from all five schools and the college can meet, work, brainstorm, and host and attend events. Many aspire to be founders, but not all. iHQ is designed to encourage chance meetings and opportunities that support all students in exploring their unique innovation pathways.
