Research District to receive Innovation Zone funding
Washington state will allocate $275,000 in capital grant funds for the Innovation Partnership Zone in north Richland, which coincides with the Tri-Cities Research District. The funding will be administered by the Port of Benton for capital projects in the District, such as sustainable development equipment and infrastructure. The Research District was designated as one of the state's 11 Innovation Partnership Zones last year, bringing together research, higher education, innovation, and economic development to strengthen the regional economy.
