Research Triangle Park (RTP)

Research Triangle Park (RTP) is a high-tech park located in the "Research Triangle" region of North Carolina, United States.

The name comes from the triangle connecting the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC), Duke University, and North Carolina State University, which are located in the three central North Carolina towns of Chapel Hill, Durham, and Raleigh (the state capital), respectively.

If you would like to know more about Chapel Hill, Durham, and Raleigh, click the following.

Research Triangle Park is one of the largest high-tech parks in the United States, along with Silicon Valley led by Stanford University, Route 128 led by MIT, and Silicon Alley led by Cornell University.

Information about Research Triangle Park is as follows

  • Area: 7,000 acres (28.3\(km^2\))
  • Number of companies: more than 7,000 (including more than 700 global companies)
  • Employment: more than 50,000 people

In Japan, high-tech parks tend to be concentrated in Tokyo, led by the University of Tokyo, while in the United States, high-tech parks are located in rural areas (in a good sense) such as North Carolina.

In addition, UNC's Department of Computer Science, where our Founder/CEO&CTO Hiroyuki Chishiro was a visiting researcher, is of a higher level than the University of Tokyo (UNC is ranked 20th in the 2021 World University Academic Ranking, while the University of Tokyo is between 101 and 150).

This shows the high level of research at North Carolina.
