The Illinois Science + Technology Park has its origins as a distinguished former drug research and production complex (with advanced laboratory, testing and related facilities) for a major pharmaceutical company. Due to a buy-out and consolidation of the company, the complex closed and the vacant facility was purchased by Forest City Science + Technology Group and is now being transformed into a state-of-the-art research and technology park situated in the heart of northeastern Illinois' growing life science and pharmaceutical cluster.
The Illinois Science + Technology Park will serve as a catalyst to transform Illinois from a scientific research hub to an economic engine for bioscience technologies. Strategically located near the Chicago area's major universities, teaching research hospitals, and pharmaceutical/medical device companies, the Park will play an integral role in creating the coveted, high-quality scientific jobs that are driving the 21st Century economy, and provide much needed and readily available research space for companies to develop and grow.
