COLLABORATION
A
t Lake Nona, the power of partnerships can be seen everywhere. In education, technology, sustainability, innovation and health and wellness, the joint impact of Lake Nona’s many collaborations is working on all fronts. The Lake Nona Education Initiative is ensuring that stellar learning opportunities are available to all Lake Nona residents by devising a Collaborative Learning Environment (CLE) designed to give students and residents the ability to engage in real-time interactions with researchers, doctors and professors, as well as classrooms and other learning environments around the globe. A unique partnership with Promethean, a global leader in advanced classroom technology, is making Lake Nona an educational example for how innovative learning technologies, such as the interactive whiteboard, can be leveraged to create a community where classrooms, offices and homes are able to communicate seamlessly.
L A K E N O N A I N S T I TUT E Lake Nona Institute (LNI) is a non-profit, communityfocused organization that incubates, activates and measures the impact of innovative technologies and programs that can become global models for building healthy, sustainable and inspired communities. LNI centers on acceleration in education, sustainability and health and wellness. LNI’s areas of interest were inspired by one local initiative that began in 1999 with the development of NorthLake Park Community School and Lake Nona YMCA, the first elementary school and YMCA pairing in the nation developed through private, non-profit and public entities. The initial support and leadership for LNI will be provided by aligned corporate partners that include Lake Nona Management Company and GE while the anchor Lake Nona Medical City partners will be essential stakeholders.

The development of the Lake Nona YMCA Family Center, which shares a building with the A-rated NorthLake Park Community School and its local city park, created a new school model to help children succeed. Valencia’s Collegiate Academy at Lake Nona High School is empowering students to earn an associate degree in time for high school graduation through an accelerated academic program and a full-blown Valencia College branch campus right next door. As part of Lake Nona’s commitment to conservation, 40 percent of the community has been reserved for open green space and lakes. With 44 miles of planned trails and 1,000 acres of lakes and waterways, Lake Nona’s conservation areas provide residents with abundant recreational opportunities, neighborhood gathering spaces and natural habitats to get out and enjoy nature. Lake Nona takes fitness one step further by sponsoring worthy events and causes including RunNona 5K, the American Diabetes Association’s Tour de Cure, and the Lake Nona Athletic Club, a non-profit club made up of residents who promote amateur running, cycling and swimming in our community. By getting the right people together, Lake Nona is building partnerships with the potential to succeed and the power to make a difference.
C ase stud y in colla b oration Lake Nona and GE have joined forces to put their innovation to work while promoting sustainability and healthy living. GE’s “homes inspired by ecomagination™” program helped Lake Nona place more than 110 environmentally friendly products in newly built homes in Laureate Park. With GE’s Nucleus™ energy manager, the entire community can monitor its power consumption and find ways to do better collectively. All homes are prewired for GE’s EV car charging stations, the Wattstation™. In addition, GE’s Energy Star appliances and its GeoSpring hybird heat pump water heater will be included in every home, saving homeowners more than 20 percent on energy costs. Custom LED street lights on Lake Nona’s roads increase safety and lower maintenance costs. With GE’s InBody™ device, Lake Nona residents can measure and track their overall fitness. Plus, Lake Nona Medical City is using GE technology to expand the reach of wellness to the entire community.

t all began with a big-think vision for smarter, more sustainable everyday living. With plenty of greenfield land, vision and patience, Lake Nona’s parent company, Tavistock Group, was a leading force in the effort to turn Lake Nona into a sustainable, responsible city-within-a-city. Tavistock Group’s Lake Nona team worked to put the physical and human infrastructure in place for research facilities, hospitals for veterans and children, universities, a thriving town center, and homes for more than 20,000 residents. By donating land and contributing financial support, Tavistock Group attracted UCF’s College of Medicine, Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute, Orlando VA Medical Center, Nemours Children’s Hospital and the University of Florida Research & Academic Center, creating a whole new economic engine for the region right here in Lake Nona. The early emphasis on life science and health care fields has become the main catalyst for creating a vibrant community with all the earmarks of a progressive city of the future. The Lake Nona team’s long-term view is creating long-term value for Lake Nona.
