Tech901 is excited to be a collaborator at the newly repurposed former library into the U of M, [CommuniTech Research Park](https://www.communitechpark.com/).

If you haven't heard anything about this project, take a moment and familiarize yourself or stop by and take a tour.  

Being a collaborator member means you not only participate in conversations, meetings, and interactions, but you add your piece of contribution to the CommuniTech community.  "Memphis has a strong foundation of organizations who continue to collaborate and provide impressive and innovative projects like Research Park," said Robert Montague, executive director of Tech901.
