Georgia Tech’s Medical Innovation Building: Transforming Healthcare Through Technology and Collaboration

Georgia Tech is launching a transformative initiative — the Medical Innovation Hub — to redefine healthcare through technology-driven, interdisciplinary innovation. Positioned at the intersection of engineering, bioscience, and medicine, the Medical Innovation Hub will catalyze breakthroughs in diagnostics, therapeutics, and medical devices by translating faculty research into real healthcare solutions. 

Anchored by top-ranked academic units and Interdisciplinary Research Institutes, including the new Institute for Neuroscience, Neurotechnology, and Society, the Medical Innovation Hub will foster partnerships with leading hospitals, universities, and public health organizations. It will support translational research in areas such as regenerative medicine, neurotechnology, immunoengineering, wearable sensors, and AI-driven diagnostics. 

The Medical Innovation Building, a six-story, $180 million to $200 million facility adjacent to Georgia Tech’s BioQuad, will serve as the headquarters for the new Medical Innovation Hub. The leading-edge building will house faculty labs, makerspaces, and collaborative areas. It will serve as a launchpad for education, innovation, and commercialization, enhancing Georgia Tech’s impact on regional and global health. 

Private philanthropy is essential to realizing this vision, securing additional funding, and beginning construction. Donors have a unique opportunity to shape the future of healthcare by supporting a facility that will empower researchers, students, and partners to deliver life-changing solutions, enabling Georgia Tech to lead the future of healthcare innovation and improve the human condition across Georgia and beyond.
