The first building, the SDSU Innovation Center, is a 28,000 square
foot two-story multi-tenant and incubator building with an impressive architectural design, both external and internal. Office and lab space
is available for immediate occupancy or we can customize to accommodate all levels of businesses, from start-up to well-
established companies.
The entrance of the building leads you into an innovative architectural designed rotunda – a great first impression for companies recruiting
new clients or meeting with existing clients.
The rotunda is large enough to host receptions, community
gatherings, and business meetings.
The Innovation Center offers an executive conference room on the
first floor, a class-room conference room on the second floor, a
common kitchen, break room, and work room, as well as a large
shipping and receiving area.
Phase II of the Innovation Center building will add additional office
and lab space.
The Innovation Center building is the place for innovative companies
on the cutting-edge and a great place to collaborate with other
companies.
Seed Technology Laboratory
"It all begins with the seed"
South Dakota State University has one of the foremost seed technology teaching, service and research labs in the country. During a time when others are de-emphasizing their efforts in seed and crop research, SDSU Plant Science has identified crop breeding/genetics and seed technology as a critical area for continued support. Support from producers, commodity organizations and private industry indicate the vital importance of this area to South Dakota agriculture. This building is a unique concept, housing the South Dakota Crop Improvement Association, Seed Testing Lab, Crop Quality Lab and modern facilities for molecular geneticists. Located in the northwest corner of the Innovation Campus, the building will be equipped with a Bio-containment suite and much needed greenhouse space.
Phase I
The building is under construction and is scheduled to be completed in July 2010.
Phase II
There are four planned expansions to the Seed Technology Building.
Additional funds are being raised to complete Phase II projects.
