PCOMM partnered with New York City Council Member Lincoln Restler where he wrote an op-ed in Crain’s New York Business celebrating the partnership between Pratt Institute and the Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation as “an exciting example of how academic institutions can continue driving innovation, leading to the creation of new businesses that help fuel our local economy.” In the article, Restler explores the creative synergies at the Research Yard and Dock 72, writing that “by linking young creatives directly to the businesses that can help bring their ideas to life, Dock 72 is not only nurturing the next generation of creatives, but modeling how research institutions and businesses can collaborate to generate real-world impact on a local and potentially global scale.”
