UH awarded for economic innovations
UH was recognized by the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities as part of the second annual Innovation & Economic Prosperity University Awards.
“The University of Houston takes its responsibility to help drive the region’s economic development very seriously, so we are gratified to have our efforts acknowledged with this national recognition,” said President Renu Khator in a statement.
UH was chosen for its focus on “creating an innovation ecosystem by nurturing interdependence between internal know-how and resources, and input from university stakeholders and industry experts (and) for building an Energy Research Park that is enriching the social and cultural fabric of the community, and for making connections between and among their efforts in innovation and entrepreneurship, talent development, and the cultivation of place.”
