The onMain Innovation District broke ground

The onMain Innovation District broke ground on its first commercial structure, the Think Dayton building.
This five-story, 120,000 sq. ft. facility will be a cornerstone of the 38-acre redevelopment of the former Montgomery County Fairgrounds, designed to bring together research, business incubation, and technology education with an initial focus on aviation and defense.
The Digital Transformation Center is excited to announce that we will be making our future home in the Think Dayton building, relocating our innovators and members into this vibrant ecosystem! As an officially designated Innovation Hub, onMain received a $35M state grant, fueling a vision that will create 2,000 jobs and generate $500M in research funding by 2031.
With leadership from Premier Health, the University of Dayton, local government, and private investors, onMain is setting the stage for Dayton’s future — and the DTC is excited to be part of it!
