Fars Science and Technology Park

Fars Science and Technology Park (FSTP),authorized by the “Ministry of Science,Research and Technology”,officially started its operation in 2002 to create appropriate infrastructures for technology development. FSTP encompasses three incubator centers and a multi-tenant building for entrepreneur companies (graduated companies from incubators) in 20 ha of land,North-West of Shiraz city,along with eight affiliated centers in different cities of Fars province. FSTP provides an appropriate environment for professional presence of small and medium technical companies and their research and development offices run by innovators. The major goal of FSTP is to constructively and effectively connect companies,universities,research centers,and large industries which are actively engaged in innovative technologies. FSTP also tries to create job opportunities for university graduates and researchers and to provide internship opportunities.

Considering the proven large oil and gas reserves in Fars province,the oil,gas,and petrochemical incubator,has been active since February 2011. This center has gathered specialists and innovators in the field of chemical engineering,petroleum engineering,gas,petrochemical and mechanical engineering,material engineering,electrical engineering and electronics,computer engineering,petroleum geology,and other oil related fields.
