Wrocław Technology Park Grzegorz Gromada Vice-President of the Management Board
Origin of technology parks • In 1951 the University of Stanford alloted a part of its grounds for the activity of high-tech companies. The first tenancy agreement was concluded with the company Verian Associates.This investment is the germ of Silicon Valley. • The aim of Stanford Technology Park creators was to increase income of the university by tenancy of the land and establishing the centre for advanced technologies situated near the university. • Over the next years the following entities located activity in Stanford Park: Eastman Kodak, General Electric, Shockley Transistor Laboratory of Beckman Instruments, Lockheed.
Origin of technology parks The first building of the company Verian Associates in Stanford Industrial Park in Palo Alto in San Francisco. The garage in which Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard started their company in Palo Alto.
