Innovation
Invitational

The Innovation Invitational was a novel grant readiness process that prepared eight regional teams to apply for a federal grant of their choice.  Participating teams began by identifying community challenges, brainstorming solutions, and gathering feedback from subject matter experts and mentors who were paired with each team.  On September 19, TIA team representatives delivered final presentations to a panel of judges, who selected the two winners based on their ability to deploy innovative, scalable solutions that will improve transportation in communities across Texas and the country.
