The CENTRE for Advanced Technology at Colorado State University

The CENTRE
for Advanced Technology
at
Colorado State University

A Unique Mixed-use Development.

Colorado State University Research Foundation (CSURF), in conjunction with the Everitt Companies of Fort Collins, has developed a multi-use technology park located directly south of the main campus of Colorado State University (CSU). The park provides an environment adjacent to the University for private high tech industry to interface and interact with CSU on a mutually beneficial basis.

Studies of university-oriented research parks conclude that those which incorporate mixed-use are most successful. The park, therefore, has a portion of the acreage devoted to retail and commercial uses. A significant portion of the park has and will be developed into sites which will be leased to high technology related firms on a long term basis.

CSURF and CSU wish to attract new as well as existing industry to the park. The nationally recognized research programs at CSU in veterinary medicine, life sciences, biotechnology, engineering technology and natural resources has been a major factor in attracting tenants to the park.

The Centre consists of approximately 235 acres directly south of the CSU main campus. Historically, the area has been used for research plots for horticulture, plant pathology, botany, forestry, agronomy, etc. With residential and commercial areas now completely surrounding the parcel, it was realized that a tech park would offer many advantages to research programs at the University as well as opportunities for faculty, staff, students and the entire Fort Collins community.

The objective of The Centre is to create a mutually beneficial relationship between CSU's research programs and private industry - offering numerous advantages to each entity. In addition, revenues from the park will be used to enhance University research programs and activities.

In the fall of 1999, the NRRC (Natural Resources Research Center) opened along with the extension of Centre Avenue from Research Boulevard at Drake Road to Prospect Road.

We encourage you to explore locating at The Centre. CSURF sites are available through a long term lease. We invite your inquiries.
