Last week, we gathered to celebrate something that doesn’t always get enough airtime: milestone moments. At our Creators & Innovators event, we honored five incredible individuals from across our ecosystem — people who are building, creating, and pushing ideas forward in meaningful ways.
Matt Canning, Ginny Palmieri, Nick Malhomme, Mike Carter, and Dan Ostien, were recognized for the hard work, consistency, and creativity that turned big ideas into real momentum. These milestones didn’t happen by chance; they’re the result of dedication, risk-taking, and showing up day after day.
We also had the honor of celebrating a meaningful leadership transition for our i2n board, extending our sincere thanks to Christopher F. Wright for his dedication, guidance, and steady leadership, while welcoming Thomas Burke as our new Board Chair and John A Barrett as Vice Chair. We look forward to this next chapter and the leadership ahead!
Our i2n Board represents the breadth, diversity and geographic reach of the innovation ecosystem across southeastern Pennsylvania. Each of our professionals provide expertise, insights and a passion for helping early-stage, tech-focused entrepreneurs to transform their ideas from concept to implementation.
