Industry Visit

The Industry Visit, a recurring event, stands as a pivotal program within our chapter. Crafted with the purpose of fostering connections between local industries and our members, this initiative specifically targets the vibrant setting of the Triangle Research Park (RTP). Situated within the triangular expanse of Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill, RTP holds the distinction of being one of the largest and longest-established research parks in the United States. Renowned for its clustering of high-tech enterprises and research institutions, RTP provides an ideal backdrop for our members to engage with the thriving industries in the region.
