Indianapolis and West Lafayette will cohost research-park conference in 2027

Indianapolis and West Lafayette have been chosen to share hosting duties for an international research-park meeting next year. The Association of University Research Parks lists November 1–4, 2027 for its Indiana conference, with 16 Tech Innovation District and Purdue Research Park as the local hosts.

The agenda is expected to combine talks and business discussions with opportunities to meet other participants and visit the host communities. Hotel and registration information will follow; the announcement does not put a value on local spending or forecast turnout. Purdue Research Park also received the association’s Distinguished Community of Innovation award in October. For the two Indiana hosts, the conference adds a scheduled occasion to present their work to an international industry audience.
