Boston Globe Spotlights RTP - CEDNC.org
A September 12 Boston Globe article spotlighted the Research Triangle and
four other high-tech hubs on their economic prospectives. The Globe's
Anthony Shadid wrote about RTP: "This area is often credited with doing it
right. It built on the capital of its research universities -- University of
North Carolina, North Carolina State and Duke -- and developed the
remarkably successful 7,000-acre Research Triangle Park, an engine for
high-tech growth." The article cited the economic hangover that RTP and
other technology hubs are experiencing and then put a positive spin on the
region. "North Carolina still boasts affordable housing, relatively
reasonable traffic, warm weather and, as everyone points out, universities
churning out top-flight graduates. 'In Boston, you've got MIT and Harvard,'
[Vivek Wadhwa, Relativity Technologies] says, 'But you've got 10 times as
many businesses going after the students. Here you've got great universities
but there's not that much demand.' " To read the full article, visit
