Leaders Dedicate Eastman Innovation Center on UT Campus
The two institutions will work toward a “green corridor” through sustainability partnership
A longstanding relationship between Eastman and the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, took a leap forward Thursday as leaders dedicated the Eastman Innovation Center and outlined joint initiatives that could have far-reaching economic and environmental impact.
The center expands an existing research relationship, as the university has been a member of the Eastman Innovation Network of higher education partners since 2015. Eastman will maintain a consistent campus presence, with scientists rotating through its Knoxville space to focus on research proposals from UT research teams of faculty and students.
