CAER Facility Tour December 9, 2010

The Center for Advanced Engineering and Research is a non-profit organization that creates working relationships between high-tech industries, major R&D centers and university researchers, and facilitates professional development opportunities for scientists and engineers in the region. The CAER is a member of Virginia's Region 2000 Partnership.

The Center for Advanced Engineering and Research (CAER) broke ground on its new research and education center on Friday, November 6 at the New London Business and Technology Center in Bedford, Virginia.

Funding for the 25,000 square foot research center was provided through a $7.6 million economic development grant from the Virginia Tobacco Indemnification and Community Revitalization Commission. Bedford County provided the land and helped to underwrite some of land planning costs and site preparation at the 500-acre business park. The park is located just off of Rt. 460 West in eastern Bedford County.
