Florida State University Announces Aerospace Research and Innovation Facility at The St. Joe Company's VentureCrossings® Enterprise Centre
Florida State University will build an aerospace research and advanced manufacturing facility at St. Joe's VentureCrossings Enterprise Centre in Panama City, with St. Joe donating the land.
Construction began Monday on phase one; future phases include a hypersonic wind tunnel with national defense applications. The project is backed by a $98.4 million Triumph Gulf Coast grant, a $65 million FSU commitment over 10 years, and an FSU pledge to secure over $235 million in additional grant funding.
The announcement strengthens St. Joe's long-term development strategy along the State Road 79 corridor, but involves a land donation rather than a near-term revenue event.
