Welcome to Gateway University Research Park

On Behalf of Chancellor Linda Brady of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and Chancellor Harold Martin of North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University, we thank you for your interest in Gateway University Research Park.

A $400 million master plan has been developed for the two campuses of Gateway University Research Park and when fully developed, the research park is anticipated to generate an economic impact of $50 million per year in the Triad. Upon full build out of the project, it is further anticipated that companies and agencies located at the Gateway University Research Park will encompass more than 2,000 employees.

This novel joint venture between NCA&T and UNCG is designed to facilitate collaborations between world‐class researchers and businesses – to move scientific discoveries from the lab to the marketplace benefitting the local community, region, and North Carolina by transforming cutting‐edge intellectual properties into thriving business ventures. Gateway’s environment will be a place where companies can work alongside university faculty, scientists, researchers and students to generate research dollars and spin off new companies, and to share resources and access to specialized equipment without the large investment of capital needed outside of a research park environment.

This website provides an overview of the research focus of the universities, regional technology assets and opportunities for collaborations. If you would like additional information, please call John Merrill, Executive Director, at (336) 375-9232.
