WDEL 101 7FM New lab creates jobs innovation in Delaware on UD s campus

Entrepreneurs and officials celebrated the grand opening of Delaware Technology Park's new laboratory incubator on the University of Delaware's STAR campus Friday.

The DTP expansion, named DTP@STAR, is aimed at creating jobs and innovation in Delaware.

The U.S. Department of Commerce, through the Economic Development Administration, is investing $500,000 over the next three years into DTP@STAR.

"It means a lot because it helps defer some of the operating costs of the shared services that makes the rent a little bit lower for the people that are here," said DTP President Mike Bowman.
