About

Turning geographic proximity into strategic advantages for the regional private sector and the University of Notre Dame

As Notre Dame's team dedicated to regional industry collaboration, we form long-term partnerships with companies that drive innovation, economic resilience, and real-world impact.

What We Do

The success of the private sector in our own backyard sets the pace for regional prosperity and resilience. We build relationships with local companies and support programming that aligns campus resources and industry expertise to unlock value and imagine what is possible.
