UNLV Harry Reid Research and Technology Park Mission
Support research growth and technology development at UNLV and create a business community that will advance the existing research, business, and high-tech economic base in Southern Nevada
***
The UNLV Harry Reid Research and Technology Park (Park) is a fully master planned business, research and technology community consisting of 122 gross acres near the intersection of Sunset Road and Durango Road in Las Vegas. Owned by the UNLV Research Foundation since June 2005, the Park has been approved by Clark County, Nevada as a high impact project consisting of up to 3.5 million gross square feet of buildings, and all Clark County entitlements are approved. Economic analysis indicates that if 3.5 million gross square feet are developed, it could result in an economic expansion of as many as 25,000 new jobs and as much as $2.6 billion in direct and indirect economic effect to Las Vegas. As the sole beneficiary of the Park, the UNLVRF will use Park earnings to further research, scholarship and creative activity at UNLV.
Tenants of the Park will realize the many benefits the site has to offer including but not limited to:
- A premium location, minutes from McCarran International Airport, The Strip, 215 beltway and the I-15 Highway
- Affiliation opportunities with UNLV’s esteemed faculty and graduate students, and access to core lab facilities and other university-related attributes. Discover more about what UNLV has to offer.
- High profile branding visuals for corporations and government organizations including extensive common area landscaping as well as direct views of Red Rock Canyon, the Sheep Mountains, and the famous Las Vegas Strip
- Potential tax benefits for businesses relocating to Nevada’s corporate-friendly environment
All business interactions for the Park will be conducted confidentially through the Commercial Development and Management Corporation (CDMC), a 501 (c)(3) corporation whose sole beneficiary is the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. The Commercial Development and Management Corporation (CDMC) will provide all of the Park’s subleasing, marketing, infrastructure construction and management services, and acts as landlord of the UNLV Harry Reid Research and Technology Park. The CDMC’s Directors and Management have extensive real estate development experience to assist developers and tenants interested in building on the Park. |
