Eastman Announces Innovation Partnership with North Carolina State University
As part of the agreement, Eastman will provide $10 million over six years in support of the Eastman Chemical Company Center of Excellence (ECCE) partnership. It also establishes the Eastman Innovation Center (EIC) laboratory. The lab will be located on Centennial Campus, NC State’s nationally recognized research campus.
The agreement also allows visiting Eastman scientists to work in NC State labs and allows NC State researchers to do the same at Eastman sites. NC State students are also expected to participate in the research projects.
The Eastman Innovation Center lab will be located in the Partners II building on Centennial Campus. The company is expected to move into the space in early 2013.
