A $10 million gift from Honeywell will transform UNC Charlotte's campus. The funds, announced at a Monday event, will create a cutting-edge center for science and tech studies. The building will house new labs and research zones, with $1 million set aside for smart building systems. "What we believe is that this program becomes a feeder to the whole bigger process," said Vimal Kapur, Honeywell CEO. It becomes a virtuous cycle that companies grow and they're able to leverage the capacity which is available here."
