Independence, Mo. - The University of Missouri says its Mizzou Center in Blue Springs will leave by the end of September, ending a partnership announced six years ago to get the Missouri Innovation Park off the ground.
The university’s involvement had been seen as critical to getting development going at the Innovation Park, where the city would like to see high-skill, high-paying jobs in such areas as life sciences. Specifically, officials have hoped that the first building on the 63-acre park’s first phase would have about 60,000 square feet, half used by the university and half by a private company.
