The City of Richardson, in partnership with UT Dallas, celebrated the grand opening of The IQ® Headquarters this week. Located at 1302 E. Collins Blvd., the 27,500-square-foot “IQ® HQ” will support the surrounding Richardson Innovation Quarter by housing six new UT Dallas research centers, the City’s new Office of Economic Development and space for programming, networking and events focused on attracting entrepreneurial activity to the area.  

The event marked the reactivation of a building that has long been owned by the City, newly modernized and thoughtfully redesigned with Smart City design technologies. Approximately 7,000 square feet of space will be available for future expansion or flexible partnering opportunities. In the short term, several City departments including the City Manager’s Office will be temporarily housed in the facility in the wake of the recent fire at City Hall.
