City of San Leandro

As the City of San Leandro’s first Chief Innovation Officer, Ms. Acosta’s task is twofold: (1) develop the Lit San Leandro 10 gbps fiber optic network as a unique infrastructure tool to attract, expand and retain innovative tech businesses and businesses in need of fast connectivity; and (2) to cultivate a healthy tech and innovation ecosystem designed to attract investment, companies and jobs to San Leandro. Today, over 3 million square feet of commercial and industrial building space and over 200 businesses are now connected to Lit San Leandro. Recently, the City launched a new public private partnership with ZipPower LLC, OSISoft, Lawrence Berkeley National Labs, GELI and Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) to create a City-wide distributed renewable energy micro grid – a power plant on every roof and parking garage!
