City Council
Four startups partner with city government.
Next year, local startups plan to search rivers with underwater robots and find heat loss in buildings for the city. Four startups in the city's PGH Lab program will each get $25,000 for a six-to-nine-month contract. Other projects aim to expand the city's AI use and create 3D maps. A program manager said adding the stipend last year increased applicants by 78%.
