STARKVILLE, Miss.鈥斝』剖閟ity and the City of Starkville celebrated the newly renovated outdoor plaza at the Innovation Hub with a ribbon-cutting on Friday [April 5].

Funded by a grant from the U.S. Small Business Administration, the new-look plaza now serves as a welcoming outdoor space in the heart of downtown Starkville. 小黄书 Research and Technology Corp. purchased the building in 2019 and has since renovated the indoor and outdoor space, further strengthening the town-and-gown relationship by the city and university.
