Origin of technology parks

• In 1951 the University of Stanford alloted a part
  of its grounds for the activity of high-tech
  companies. The first tenancy agreement was
  concluded with the company Verian Associates.
  This investment is the germ of Silicon Valley.
• The aim of Stanford Technology Park creators was
  to increase income of the university by tenancy
  of the land and establishing the centre for
  advanced technologies situated near the
  university.
• Over the next years the following entities
  located activity in Stanford Park Eastman Kodak,
  General Electric, Shockley Transistor Laboratory
  of Beckman Instruments, Lockheed.
