|

| |
The Riverfront
Research Park is a cooperative effort of the University of Oregon
and private developers to build a university-related research park
on 67 acres adjacent to the UO. The Park provides a beautiful
master-planned setting, where knowledge-based businesses and organizations
can start and grow in close proximity to and in collaborative association
with the well-respected research capabilities of the University. |
|
| |
| |
The purpose
of the Research Park is to attract and promote the growth of technology
and the economy of Oregon by providing an environment conducive to
research and innovation. The University of Oregon encourages
the transfer of research and technology to the private sector, and
supports the Park's goals of helping to diversify the region's economy
and create quality employment opportunities for students, faculty,
and members of the community. |
