Center for Urban Environment and Economic Development Sowing Fertile Ground in the Emerging Environmental Economy Home | Our Objectives | Our Strategy | What We Have to Offer | Partnering with Us Our Strategy CUEED seeks to capitalize on the demand for new tools, products, technologies and services that can remedy the issues facing urbanized areas. The nature of those issues is complex. To address such complexity, the Center draws its strength from a multidisciplinary approach to research, product development and commercialization. CUEED brings together a team of scientists from disciplines as diverse as entomology, plant pathology, horticulture, soil science, environmental health sciences, city and regional planning, landscape architecture, civil engineering, and many more. To bridge the gap between research and successful commercialization, CUEED receives business and marketing development support from Ohio State's Food and Agricultural Technology Commercialization and Economic Development Program (ATECH) and the university's Office of Technology Licensing and Commercialization. In addition, the Center works closely with industry partners in identifying product and technology needs as well as delivery solutions.
