Across the country, local governments are looking for new ways to attract cutting-edge employers, foster innovation, and accelerate economic growth. The City of Peachtree Corners, Georgia, found its solution hiding in plain sight: the public right-of-way.

By transforming more than three miles of city streets within an existing 500-acre technology park into Curiosity Lab, Peachtree Corners is redefining what’s possible when a city leverages its infrastructure as a platform for innovation. The lab’s open-access environment allows companies to develop and test connected, autonomous, and data-driven technologies in real-world conditions, integrated seamlessly into the daily operations of an active community. This forward-thinking approach positions Peachtree Corners as a global destination for technology development and collaboration.
