Building on the insights offered in Research to Renewal: Advancing University Tech Transfer, published in May 2022 and released at the organization's flagship event, Heartland Summit, Heartland Forward's new report From Research to Renewal, Part 2: States Realizing the Potential of Research Institutions provides the first new benchmark comparison for public universities structured as part of a state system and also considers institutions (hospitals, private research institutes and federal labs) that do not grant degrees but are important sources of research and innovation that bolster state economies.
