The Research Triangle
The single largest game changer for the entire region was the introduction of the Research Triangle in 1959. Originally established as a government backed area to entice and establish corporate business opportunities the single simple objective was to stop the “brain drain” from those local universities. It turned the corner in 1965 with IBM building a research facility as well as the $70 million National Environmental Health Science Center.
