The University of New Mexico is continuing to work on the Innovate ABQ incubator Downtown and is about 60 days away from closing on the Downtown property.
In a brief update on Tuesday morning, Lisa Kuuttila, CEO and chief economic development officer at STC.UNM, said the school is waiting for the results of environmental studies and is on track to close on May 1.
Kuuttila also said that consulting firm Perkins+Will will come to the city to help begin the master planning process in April. “It’s exciting to see this idea turn into what we’re calling the ‘innovation network,’” Kuuttila said. “We have Stu Rose’s new Fat Pipe, and with CNM’s announcement, there’s a lot going on.”
