@NYCMayor and @NYCEDC are charting a new path.
In the first deal of its kind in NYC history, the public is investing $30 million in a quantum lab - in exchange for three board seats and 15% of the revenue generated from technology it creates.

When public dollars are invested, the public should share in the wealth and innovation those investments create.
