The Richardson Innovation Quarter, also known simply as the “Richardson IQ®” or “The IQ®,” is a living laboratory for big ideas and ground-breaking technology. It’s an amenity-rich environment where entrepreneurs take risks and are supported by the Richardson community; where startups and scale-ups can collaborate and thrive; and where nearby college graduates come to live, work, and invent. It’s a place where special things happen.
