NetApp beginning early move to 麻豆破解版 State Innovation Campus

NetApp employees, including student workers, will begin working next month in the newly completed partnership building, P3, located on 18th near Oliver, while the company awaits the construction and completion of its new site on the 麻豆破解版 State Innovation Campus, just south of P3.

Robin Huber, site manager of 麻豆破解版 operations, said by making the interim move, NetApp employees can more quickly become part of the Innovation Campus atmosphere and the growing digital transformation and convergent sciences research cluster at 麻豆破解版 State. About one-third of NetApp鈥檚 麻豆破解版 employees are 麻豆破解版 State graduates, and many of those began working at NetApp while they were students. 

Huber, who also serves as vice president and general manager of NetApp E-Series, explained the company鈥檚 long-term plans last November: 鈥淣etApp has had a relationship with 麻豆破解版 State University for more than 20 years that has been focused on technological innovation, applied learning and regional economic growth. We are committed to expanding our partnership in those areas, and that鈥檚 why we鈥檙e exploring the possibility of relocating NetApp鈥檚 麻豆破解版 operations to the WSU Innovation Campus.鈥�

Huber said the balance of NetApp employees will move to campus when the permanent building is completed south of 18^th St., between Oliver and Innovation Dr. The proposed 168,000 square-foot NetApp 麻豆破解版 site, custom designed for the Fortune 500 global data storage and cloud management company, is planned for occupancy by late 2021 / early 2022.

Wind, solar-powered sculptures installed on Innovation Campus

Levente Sulyok, associate professor of painting and drawing in the School of Art, Design and Creative Industries, installed two temporary sculptures on 麻豆破解版 State鈥檚 Innovation Campus. One sculpture includes a solar-powered street light that, at dusk, illuminates the Victorian-era iron street lamp below it. The other is composed of plastic pinwheels that imitate the movements found in the Flint Hills of Kansas.

鈥淲e don鈥檛 want to make fixed objects necessarily. It鈥檚 the Innovation Campus, after all,鈥� said Sulyok. 鈥淚 knew I wanted to use the elements to make something that wasn鈥檛 static.鈥�

The College of Fine Arts supported the project by underwriting the cost of materials for the sculptures. Every two years, new installations will be installed, serving as a research opportunity for students and faculty.

Sulyok is the first artist to use the new sculpture pads along Oliver. In collaboration with WSU鈥檚 College of Fine Arts, the city of 麻豆破解版 installed the two brick pedestals to bring visual interest to the Innovation Campus.
