RTI International
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
RTI International was established in 1958 as Research Triangle Institute, the founding tenant of North Carolina’s Research Triangle Park. RTI was founded as part of a larger effort to harness the intellectual capital of the area’s three major universities— North Carolina State University, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Duke University.
Since that time, RTI has grown from a handful of dedicated scientists into an international research organization of more than 2,500 people conducting research and development projects in more than 40 countries throughout the world. The second largest independent nonprofit research organization in the United States, RTI maintains nine offices in the U.S., five international offices, and one international subsidiary, as well as project offices around the world.
