“I know both my children loved it & have learned so much from this class. It’s amazing what they have been able to accomplish. Great thanks to Mick’s teaching & guidance!!”
“Most of the teams worked very well together – each member brought their own individual skill to the group participating.. We had to step outside of our comfort zone and produce something original and unique and the results were very impressive. Definitely a great experience”.
“All of my data science learning up to this point was asynchronous, so it was nice to have a “live” experience.”
The Mid-Atlantic Innovation Collaboratory(MAGIC) is an organization that has been hard at work in developing students with expertise in technology and cybersecurity with a benefit to our own organization in the training and surfacing of talent for job placement. The availability of gigabit fiber internet at our office location, due in large part to MAGIC’s ongoing efforts to promote the Westminster Fiber Network is a significant reason that our tech company remains headquartered in Westminster and Carroll County”
MAGIC happens when people are provided the space to connect, collaborate, and solve problems. At MAGIC we call these spaces collaboratories.
These are physical, virtual, and temporary spaces where students, techies, artists, creatives, scholars, entrepreneurs, innovators and leaders work together to solve complex problems. This is where innovation happens and the entrepreneurial spirit thrives.
Our current collaboratories include: Tech Experiences, Tech Innovation Laboratories, and Virtual Tech Incubator
MAGIC leverages the unique advantages of the Westminster Fiber Network to make our community a go-to destination for technology entrepreneurs, companies, and professionals.
We are a leader in the local technology and entrepreneurship ecosystem. Working together with community partners, MAGIC provides the resources and opportunities necessary to prepare our residents for success as innovators and entrepreneurs. We pursue strategic initiatives to increase the depth and diversity of the tech ecosystem in Carroll County. We create opportunities for collaboration, creative collision, and the synergies that accelerate innovation and entrepreneurial activity.
