Keele University Science and Business Park is a science and business development facility located on the campus of Keele University in North Staffordshire.
The role of the Science Park is to support the growth of innovative businesses, particularly those active in research and development within the West Midlands region by providing a high quality location and a wide range of business support services.
Currently it is located in four large purpose built buildings located at the entrance to Keele University
The first building simply called 'Innovation Centre' and labelled on the side as just IC was opened in 1999 by Her Majesty The Queen.
It is home to many local and national businesses such as Dynamic Change, Siemens Wind Power R&D and Internet Central.
Famous quotes containing the words university, science, business and/or park:
“The exquisite art of idleness, one of the most important things that any University can teach.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“The natural historian is not a fisherman who prays for cloudy days and good luck merely; but as fishing has been styled “a contemplative man’s recreation,” introducing him profitably to woods and water, so the fruit of the naturalist’s observations is not in new genera or species, but in new contemplations still, and science is only a more contemplative man’s recreation.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The business of a seer is to see; and if he involves himself in the kind of God-eclipsing activities which make seeing impossible, he betrays the trust which his fellows have tacitly placed in him.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“The park is filled with night and fog,
The veils are drawn about the world,”
—Sara Teasdale (1884–1933)
