Tech Square Phase III is the natural evolution of the ambitious, far-reaching Tech Square initiative and is envisioned as a public/private partnership between the State of Georgia, the Institute, and private philanthropists.

As proposed, two towers connected by a shared elevator will provide spacious new homes for the H. Milton Stewart School of Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISyE) and for the Scheller College of Business graduate and executive education programs. Tech Square III is also expected to offer space for additional outward-facing Institute programs, furthering the intent of the comprehensive Tech Square concept and promoting the spirit of entrepreneurship that has become a Georgia Tech trademark.

With its pairing of two of the Institute’s most celebrated programs, Tech Square III offers new opportunities for collaboration, interdisciplinary research, and business development that will benefit Georgia Tech, the city, and the state for generations to come.

“The Scheller College of Business is an incredible resource for the city of Atlanta and the state of Georgia. It’s a gem right in the heart of Atlanta, and many people can take advantage of all it has to offer. It is one of the top 20 business schools in the country, and between its undergraduate, MBA, and executive education programs, it covers the needs of a broad range of people. The College does an excellent job preparing its students to meet the needs and demands of the current business world. I stay engaged because I want to have access to thought leadership and thought leaders and I invest in the College to support the Dean's efforts to develop new initiatives and ideas. With my participation and philanthropy, I want to encourage the continuation of diverse enrollment and leadership.”
