Atlanta, GA | Posted: September 23, 2016
“The metro Atlanta area is becoming a hub of innovation…research universities play a key role in the recent growth because corporations and startups all want to tap into the talent, technologies and other resources available at our universities. Our goal is to provide resources to help innovators succeed here in Georgia, and to collaborate with business, industry, and government, along with our colleagues in higher education, to create a thriving innovation ecosystem…Evidence that it is working can be found in the phenomenal growth of ‘innovation neighborhoods’ such as Tech Square, Technology Enterprise Park and the North Avenue Research Area. New companies are coming to the area almost every month, and large corporations are becoming engaged in helping to provide needed resources for growth. We look forward to continued collaboration with large and small companies alike, our public and private university partners, Governor Deal, Mayor Reed, the Metro Chamber, the Georgia Department of Economic Development and others to help Atlanta become not only the premier IP capital in the Southeast, but also in the U.S.”
