Top global tech clusters have strong connections between private sector companies and universities, facilitating the conduct and commercialization of research, the transfer of knowledge, and the sourcing of talent. This vision is taking another step forward with the University of Ottawa’s expanding Kanata North campus.
In a site plan application recently filed with the city, Wesley Clover International, which owns the hotel, The Marshes Golf Club and the adjoining office property at 535 Legget Dr., says the repurposed 11-storey tower will contain 115 rental apartments and about 4,300 square feet of ground-floor office space.
In this episode of Techopia Live, Ottawa Business Journal publisher Michael Curran speaks with Sean Geddes, the director of innovation and partnership in Kanata North.
