PVM AND THE MARITIME AND DEFENSE TECHNOLOGY HUB
The St. Petersburg Innovation District (SPID) established six pillars in alignment with the city’s Grow Smarter strategy, which focuses on equity in economic development. The Maritime and Defense Technology Hub was founded in 2021 to bring organizations together that align with those pillars and the Grow Smarter strategy. The results: Innovation and collaboration within marine science and defense technology under one roof. As tenants of the Hub, PVM must be peer mentors, provide internship opportunities, and participate in technical exchange events.
