Buying local means investing in equity, creativity, and resilience. It’s how we ensure New Haven’s economy reflects the richness of its people — and how every organization, from anchor institutions to small businesses, can play a role in shaping a thriving, inclusive city.
Hartford Business - Yale’s new ‘Inclusive growth’ center to set up shop on Audubon

“[The center] will examine, develop, implement new strategies for growing the city’s economy and do that, as its name suggests, in a way that is inclusive – in a way that helps everyone rise up,” Salovey said. “I think there is a shared understanding that inclusive growth is what we need to focus on and it’s crucial to the city’s success and future.”
The offices are rented and the search is on for a new director. But what exactly will go on at Yale’s new Center for Inclusive Growth was still a bit unclear after a news conference on Tuesday.
The center, a joint venture between the university and the city of New Haven with a goal of stimulating economic growth, is funded with $5 million from Yale and is set to occupy offices at 65 Audubon St., in a Yale-owned property.
