The private, not-for-profit Research Triangle Foundation (RTF) owns the Research Triangle Park (RTP), an internationally recognized center for research and development on a 6,900-acre campus in North Carolina's Piedmont region. RTP is named for the triangle formed by the three cities and universities closely associated with the development of multi-disciplinary research strengths in the Park: the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, North Carolina State University in Raleigh, and Duke University in Durham.
Research Triangle Park is a public/private, planned research park, created in 1959, by North Carolina Governor Luther Hodges and leaders from business, academia, and industry.The research park concept, however, had been introduced years before. In 1952, Howard Odum, professor of sociology at the University of North Carolina, proposed several research center formats that incorporated the idea of cooperation among research organizations. In the mid-1950s, Romeo Guest, a land developer and building contractor in Greensboro, became one of the first people to use the phrase "Research Triangle." Guest's conception of a research and development park and his behind-the-scenes contacts with investors were valuable assets to Governor Hodges and the early Park planners.
Governor Hodges formed the Research Triangle Committee in September 1956 to explore the idea of creating a research center to be located centrally to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, North Carolina State University in Raleigh, and Duke University in Durham. Members of the Committee included leaders from across the state of North Carolina in government, business, and the universities.
In April 1957, investor Karl Robbins agreed to provide funds to acquire options on land. In September 1957, Romeo Guest formed a for-profit company called Pinelands Company, Inc., with Robbins as the major stockholder. By the end of the year, nearly 4,000 acres had been optioned or purchased at a cost of approximately $700,000.
In August 1958, Robert Hanes, chair of the Research Triangle Committee, asked Archie K. Davis of Wachovia Bank to find other possible investors from North Carolina for the Pinelands Company. Davis made two important suggestions: first, that the Research Triangle Committee be reconstituted as the non-profit Research Triangle Foundation of North Carolina; and second, that he solicit contributions for RTF rather than sell stock for Pinelands Company. By 31 December 1958, Davis had raised $1.25 million in contributions from individuals and businesses from all across the state. This amount would enable RTF to purchase all of the shares of Pinelands stock and create a separate non-profit Research Triangle Institute (RTI) to perform independent contract research. On 9 January 1959, Governor Hodges formally announced the Research Triangle Foundation and Davis's successful fund-raising drive. He also announced the establishment of RTI; the planned construction of the Robert M. Hanes Building to house RTF and RTI; and the acquisition of land assembled by Pinelands Company, which thereafter would be managed by the Foundation.
The Research Triangle Institute was the Park's first tenant and served as a focal point for companies interested in the Park. The Park grew slowly through the early 1960s. Then, in 1965, with the arrival of both International Business Machines Corp. (IBM) and the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, the Park began to grow in earnest. By 1969, 21 companies had RTP addresses. From 1970 to 1979, 17 additional companies moved on campus. By 1989, 28 more companies chose locations in the Park. From 1990 to 2000, more than 42 new companies established facilities in RTP.
Some of the industries represented in the Park include textiles, forestry, health and health-care organizations, electronics, computers, chemicals, education, pharmaceuticals, biomedical instrumentation, and statistical research.

Original order of files has been maintained. Accordingly, there are six subseries, arranged in the following chronological groupings: 1956-1959; 1960; 1961; 1962-1964; 1965-1966; and 1967-1998. A few items pre- and post-date the subseries inclusive dates, perhaps because they were considered active (or closed) files and therefore carried forward (or backward). Researchers are advised to search in all subseries for a given subject file.
Researchers also should note that there is inconsistency in subject file titles across subseries. Files titled "Job Applicants" in one subseries, for example, may be titled "Personnel" in another. Likewise, files relating to the forestry service laboratory are variously titled "Forestry Announcement"; "Forest Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture"; "United States Department of Agriculture: Forestry Sciences Lab"; and "Forestry Services". Researchers are advised to search for related subject files with both narrow and broad terms.

Materials relating to the marketing of the Research Triangle Park. The bulk of the materials document contacts with businesses and organization prospects in the United States, Europe, and Japan. In addition, there is some correspondence relating to domestic and international visitors to the Research Triangle Park, and special events hosted by the Research Triangle Foundation, including press conferences and anniversary celebrations. Materials include correspondence, memoranda to file, brochures, binders, maps, press releases, speeches, audio materials, and sample publications of Research Triangle Park guides.
Arrangement: alphabetical, followed by chronological general files.
Correspondence and other materials relating to efforts by Research Triangle Foundation staff to recruit businesses, organizations, and government agencies for relocation to the Research Triangle Park. Foundation and Park staff targeted biotech, chemistry, electronic, superconductor, textile, pharmaceutical, and other industries and research areas. Promoters emphasized the campus-like environment and proximity to three research universities and the Research Triangle Institute. While initial contacts may have occurred in the 1960s, files often remained open for ten or more years as Foundation and Park staff, chiefly Ned E. Huffman, re-contacted companies and organizations that expressed a modicum of interest in the Park concept. Huffman's "notes to file" are of considerable interest as they often include information about conversations with prospective businesses, organizations, and government representatives, and assessments of likelihood of relocation. Included in the alphabetically arranged files are materials relating to recruiting trips to New York, the west coast, Switzerland and other parts of Europe, and Japan. General files typically are comprised of correspondence initiated by companies interested in finding out about relocation to Research Triangle Park.
Brochures, binders, and maps created as marketing tools to stimulate interest in the Research Triangle Park as a relocation destination. Brochures and binders describe the research and development assets in the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill area, as well as the education, climate, housing, and other livability issues of interest to prospects. Maps trace the arrival of companies and organizations to the Research Triangle Park.

Pinelands Company was incorporated in 1957 by Romeo Guest, a developer interested in the concept of a research park located near research universities. Guest recruited investor Karl Robbins to contribute the seed money for acquiring the land that would become the Research Triangle Park. By the end of 1957, approximately 3500 acres had been purchased or optioned with $700,000 of Robbins's initial investment of $1 million. Pinelands Company hired James B. Shea, Jr., as the vice president of the Research Triangle Park to recruit prospective companies and organizations to the area. Pearson H. Stewart was hired as the vice president for planning of the Research Triangle Park and charged with guiding the infrastructure and design aspects of Park development. At the end of 1958, the newly incorporated Research Triangle Foundation purchased the Research Triangle Park at cost from Pinelands Company, Inc., and became the sole stockholder. The sale transferred ownership of the land to the Research Triangle Foundation, but Pinelands continued to manage Research Triangle Park land until the company was liquidated in 1965.

Photographs relating to the Research Triangle Park, ranging in date from the 1950s to the 1990s. Subjects common to a large number of folders include head shots of corporate executives, university faculty and administrators, and politicians; products, lab work, and other forms of research; meetings; candid office shots; ribbon cuttings, groundbreakings, dedications, and other special publicity events; architectural models, construction, and design of buildings in the Research Triangle Park, including interior and exterior shots of buildings; Rotary Club events, miscellaneous parties, barbecues, and arts and crafts shows; and promotional pictures for television programs, theater productions and arts-related endeavors.
Various public figures are represented in the series, including entertainers, athletes, chancellors, University of North Carolina presidents, faculty members, southern governors, North Carolina governors from 1954 to 1993, North Carolina mayors, congressmen, and foreign ambassadors. Notable visitors include Jimmy Carter, Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, Robert Frost, Mohammed Ali, Mickey Mantle, Roger Maris, Susie Sharp, Paul Green, Andy Griffith, and Neil Armstrong.
Many of the photographs in this series were taken for publication in the Leader (1966-1989) and its successor, the North Carolina Beacon (1990-1995), weekly newspapers covering research and development activity in the Research Triangle Park. When the Beacon folded in 1995, the photographs from the two publications were given to the Research Triangle Foundation.
