Who We Are

i-GATE is a non-profit organization dedicated to building a thriving startup community in the Tri-Valley.

Since 2010, we have made it our mission to build a vibrant and diverse network of entrepreneurs and provide them with resources they need to succeed. 

What We Do

Daybreak Labs is the Tri-Valley’s only incubator for life sciences and hard tech startups. We provide R&D and office space to over a dozen pre-seed and seed-stage startups developing new technologies in medical diagnostics, food tech, materials, industrial technology and more.

Startup Tri-Valley is focused on strengthening the region by helping more startups succeed. We do this by connecting founders and innovators to a tightly networked ecosystem of resources built specifically for science-based startups.

i-GATE and our partners at Innovation Tri-Valley co-developed Tri-Valley Connect to help world class talent connect with the Bay Area’s fastest growing subregion. Learn about all five Tri-Valley communities, connect with great job opportunities, and read about some of the Tri-Valley’s world-leading companies.
