The upcoming complex is designed to anchor the university‘s expanding innovation district. It will provide dedicated space for life sciences startups, software and artificial intelligence incubators, and commercial office areas for established corporations looking to operate alongside university researchers.

Ohio State University President Ravi Bellamkonda highlighted the project as a critical venue for commercializing academic discoveries. The university oversees approximately $1.7 billion in research activity, with a major concentration in the life sciences. The new building will offer laboratory and operational space for spinoff ventures generated through that research, including an incubator operated in collaboration with JobsOhio.

Funding for the development comes from a private donation by the Timoshev family, along with backing from JobsOhio and the City of Columbus. University leaders described the joint effort as a model of collaboration between higher education, the public sector, and private industry.

The facility joins a growing cluster of corporate and research entities established on the university’s west campus, which includes offices for Google, Pelotonia, and Ohio Life Sciences, as well as the nearby Waterman Agriculture and Natural Research Lab. Central Ohio has seen broad tech investment in recent years, including developments involving Intel, Amazon, Google, and Meta.

Construction on the Timoshev Technology Tower is underway, with project officials targeting completion and an official opening in September 2028.

Jaamacadda Ohio State oo Dhagax-dhigtay Dhismaha Timoshev Technology Tower

Jaamacadda Ohio State University ayaa Talaadadii, October 20, 2026, si rasmi ah u dhagax-dhigtay xarun cusub oo lagu magacaabo Timoshev Technology Tower, taas oo laga dhisayo qeybta galbeed ee xerada jaamacadda (west campus) ee ku taal magaalada Columbus, Ohio. Dhismahan dabaqyada badan ka kooban ayaa loogu talagalay inuu noqdo xarun weyn oo dhiirrigelisa cilmi-baarista iyo hal-abuurka ganacsiyada teknoolojiyadda.

Dhismahan cusub ayaa hoy u noqon doona shirkadaha curdinka ah ee ku hawlan cilmiga nolosha (life sciences), xarumaha kobcinta ganacsiga ee barnaamijyada kombiyuutarka iyo sirdoonka macmalka ah (AI), iyo sidoo kale xafiisyo ay kireysan karaan shirkadaha waaweyn ee doonaya inay wax la qabtaan cilmi-baarayaasha jaamacadda. Mashruucan ayaa sidoo kale waxaa qeyb ka ah xarun kobcin oo iskaashi lagala sameynayo hay’adda JobsOhio.

Madaxweynaha Jaamacadda Ohio State, Ravi Bellamkonda, ayaa tilmaamay in xaruntani ay dhaboobid u tahay aragtida fog ee jaamacadda ee ku aaddan dhisidda aagga hal-abuurka iyo kor u qaadista dhaqaalaha gobolka Ohio. Waxa uu xusay in jaamacadda ay ku baxdo cilmi-baaris gaareysa $1.7 billion, ayna qeyb weyn ka tahay arrimaha sayniska nolosha, taas oo horseedeysa in shirkadaha ka dhasha aqoontaas cusub ay u baahdaan goob ay ku shaqeeyaan oo ku habboon.

Dhaqaalaha lagu dhisayo dhismahan ayaa ka yimid deeq ay bixisay qoyska Timoshev, iyadoo taageero dheeraad ahna laga helay hay’adda JobsOhio iyo dowladda hoose ee magaalada Columbus (City of Columbus). Masuuliyiinta jaamacadda ayaa tallaabadan ku ammaanay inay tahay tusaale wanaagsan oo ku saabsan iskaashiga dhexmaraya waxbarashada sare, dowladda iyo waaxda gaarka loo leeyahay.

Xaruntan cusub ayaa ku biireysa aag ay horey xafiisyo iyo xarumo cilmi-baaris uga furteen shirkado iyo ururro ay ka mid yihiin Google, Ohio Life Sciences, Pelotonia, iyo xarunta beeraha ee Waterman Agriculture and Natural Research Lab. Bartamaha gobolka Ohio ayaa sanadihii u dambeeyay noqday xudun ay ku soo qulqulayaan maalgelinno waaweyn oo teknoolojiyadeed, gaar ahaan mashaariic ay wadaan Meta, Google, Amazon, iyo Intel. Sida uu qorshuhu yahay, dhismaha Timoshev Technology Tower ayaa la filayaa in la dhammeystiro oo si rasmi ah loo furo bisha September 2028.
