The Long Island STEM Hub is a consortium of Long Island leaders who believe that we can do great things working together. We are a group that recognizes that when a workforce possesses strong science, technology, engineering and mathematics based skills it will drive our economy, retain our businesses, and draw more businesses to our region as they seek the talent that resides in our region. We invite others to join us as we generate a rising tide that will raise all ships. We seek to ensure opportunity and access for all of our diverse communities in this endeavor.

Long Island STEM Core Team
A primary goal of the Long Island STEM Hub is to bring industry, academia and not-for-profits together to prepare our youth for the high tech jobs on Long Island – to keep them right here at home. Our “Core Team” meets quarterly to share activities, present opportunities for collaboration, and to network with one another for greater success. We work together to provide broad geographic opportunities for STEM participation, to ensure opportunities for sustained engagement by our students, and to work cooperatively to be as competitive as possible in bringing STEM education grant funding to Long Island.

Regional Industry Council Leaders
The Long Island STEM Hub initiative deliberately targets STEM-based industry sectors that are a staple of the Long Island community, or are emerging strengths for our region. The STEM Hub maintains a direction that is consistent with priorities of the Long Island Regional Economic Development Council.
