Overview
The Sharjah Research, Technology, and Innovation Park (SRTIP) is a state-of-the-art hub designed to foster innovation, research, and technological advancements in the UAE. Located in Sharjah, the park serves as a key driver for economic diversification, supporting startups, multinational corporations, and academic institutions in sectors such as renewable energy, artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and advanced manufacturing.
The park was established by the Government of Sharjah under the directives of His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan bin Muhammad Al Qasimi, the Ruler of Sharjah. The project reflects Sharjah’s commitment to becoming a global leader in science and technology. The construction of SRTIP involved significant investment, with an estimated cost of several hundred million dirhams, though exact figures vary as the park continues to expand with new facilities and partnerships.
Spanning over a vast area, the park includes research labs, co-working spaces, business incubators, and smart infrastructure to support tech-driven enterprises. It also collaborates with international universities and companies to promote knowledge exchange and commercialization of research.
Since its launch, SRTIP has attracted numerous high-profile tenants, including Microsoft, Honeywell, and the American University of Sharjah (AUS), reinforcing its position as a leading innovation hub in the region.
