Sustainable Innovation

Pittsburgh’s history of innovation is one of our points of pride. And it has carried through generations. Once known for manufacturing, Pittsburgh is now a hub for technology, medicine, and education. Come see why industry giants like Facebook, Google and Uber, as well as home-grown tech companies like Duolingo and Argo AI are choosing to land in Pittsburgh.  

With the shift in industries, Pittsburgh also became a sustainability focused city. One of the most dramatic environmental transformations in American history has brought Pittsburgh more green square footage than any other city, a number of LEED® certified buildings, including the David L. Lawrence Convention Center, PPG Paints Arena, Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh, and the Energy Innovation Center, just the name a few. Not to mention the miles of hiking and biking trails that weave and connect the city.
