Blue Ridge is NYC’s
social innovation incubator
For the past 10 years, Blue Ridge has been incubating and launching new ventures that enhance economic and social mobility. As we enter our second decade, with the Internet continuing to disrupt whole industries, new technology-based possibilities are emerging in education, job training, financial empowerment, and other fields to help people from high poverty communities fulfill their full potential.
Blue Ridge is focusing our incubation efforts now on helping to build these new organizations that apply digital technology and data to advance equal opportunity in America. Our goal is to support the most disruptive social innovations to advance our country’s most signature ideal.
We’re updating our look! As Blue Ridge enters our next phase and next ten years, our logo and website are getting refreshed too. The new site will launch in Spring, 2012. Have ideas for what you would like to see on our site? Let us know.
