We are seeking a Director of AI Innovation Ecosystem Development to lead our efforts to strengthen the AI startup and innovation community. This leader will convene working groups, design programs that bridge gaps across the ecosystem, and champion the Hub’s mission through outreach and awareness-building.

Responsibilities

  • Lead and facilitate working group meetings focused on supporting startups, investors, and end-users.
  • Design and launch programs and initiatives that connect ecosystem players more efficiently (accelerator cohorts, mentorship, matchmaking, pilots).
  • Build and manage relationships with startups, VCs, corporate partners, researchers, and public sector leaders.
  • Promote awareness of the Hub through outreach, events, media, and public speaking.
  • Represent the Hub at conferences, workshops, and industry convenings.
  • Define and track metrics and KPIs to measure ecosystem health and program outcomes.
  • Collaborate with internal leadership to align ecosystem initiatives with the Hub’s broader mission.
  • Supervise and mentor staff, contractors, or fellows contributing to ecosystem activities.
