Research Triangle Park’s Past, Present and Future on WUNC’s Due South
Posted on February 18, 2026
Did you miss The Early History of RTP: A Fireside Chat earlier this month? Don’t worry, we have more for you!
Panelists John Atkins and Robb Teer Jr., both involved in building RTP over the years, joined host Leoneda Inge on WUNC’s popular radio show, Due South, on February 17 (thanks to producer Cole del Charco).
From the origins of the Park, the founders, and growth over the years, all the way to current plans for RTP 3.0, Atkins and Teer offer new perspectives on the story of Research Triangle Park.
Check out the interview here, and make sure to stop by the Museum to learn even more in our current exhibit Made In The Triangle: The Story of RTP.
