The university will accelerate physical, digital and sustainable manufacturing efforts across the state in a city that is a hub for innovation and entrepreneurship. 16 Tech also announced plans for an Accessible Precision Audiology Research Center. The community-facing center will leverage Purdue's internationally recognized expertise in audiology and hearing neuroscience and AI-driven data analytics to address the urgent need for accessible precision audiology, particularly among Indiana's underserved populations.

In the burgeoning Bottleworks district on Massachusetts Avenue, Purdue University has partnered with High Alpha to house several executive education programs from the Mitchell E. Daniels Jr. College of Business and Purdue Innovates programs.

Expanding from Purdue’s existing campus in Indianapolis, the company’s presence in Indianapolis and partnerships with industry leaders will foster innovation and experiential learning opportunities for Purdue students and faculty throughout the city.
