Welcome
The University of Essex Knowledge Gateway is the new home for the social sciences, research and development and for business space in Essex and will be anchored by the
University of Essex sponsored Institute for Democracy and Conflict Resolution (IDCR).
Set in 43 acres of parkland adjoining the University of Essex campus in Colchester, the Knowledge Gateway will offer occupying businesses the benefit
of extensive on-site leisure, conference and catering facilities together with access to the University's research and business development activities.
The Knowledge Gateway is designed to build on the University's already diverse outreach initiatives by attracting like-minded enterprises from small
businesses and governmental and non-governmental interests through to major blue-chip companies to locate in a campus setting.
Companies and organisations will be encouraged to form close links with the academic community and research facilities of the University of Essex.
Construction of the site infrastructure (roads, soft and hard landscaping) is under way and due for completion in Summer 2011.
