SONORA, California – On June 8, 2015 the Sonora based InnovationLab announced a new partnership with Big Oak Flat/Groveland Unified School District to launch a Mini-ILab on the campus of Tioga High School in Groveland, California. Big Oak Flat/Groveland Unified School District will staff the new Mini-ILab with existing resources and will also be providing ongoing funding to maintain the Mini-ILab once the location is opened. The Big Oak Flat/Groveland Unified School District will also be handling the build-out of the necessary infrastructure to prepare the building for the new Mini-ILab.
InnovationLab staff will provide assistance in establishing the Mini-ILab within the Tioga High School. Assistance will be provided through new and existing resources and InnovationLab staff will provide one-on-one guidance and management expertise. The InnovationLab will be providing necessary equipment and software including, but not limited to, computers, software and two 3-D printers.

The Mini-ILab will be open to the public during certain times and dates to encourage the spread of technology and entrepreneurship throughout the Groveland and Big Oak Flat areas of Tuolumne County.
