The Stamford Partnership

Metro Stamford’s premier economic and community impact organization

The Stamford Partnership is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit focused on improving the quality of life for Stamford’s residents, workforce, businesses, and stakeholders. We bring companies, governments, nonprofits, and people together to reimagine our shared future. Focused on economic and social impact, we’re guided by our three pillars;

Public-private Partnership

We create and empower coalitions to help transform Stamford into a smart city. One that’s fully connected and powered by technology—and with sustainability at the core of all we do.

Ecosystem Development

We build programs and services for high-potential industries and companies to encourage innovation, growth, and connectivity.

Talent Development

We believe that the workforce of the future is built on lifelong learning, soft skills, and technical knowhow. And we help individuals and companies grow with these concepts at the forefront.

Featured Programs

We foster an economic and social ecosystem that creates new opportunities and helps individuals thrive. The Partnership has been at the forefront in initiating UConn’s expansion and relocation to downtown Stamford, providing free public WiFi, rebranding the City, reimagining our mobility strategy, and fostering Stamford Downtown, Mill River Park Collaborative, Stamford Chamber of Commerce, Waterside Coalition, East Side Partnership, and many other organizations.
