About Aggie Square

Aggie Square will work for the university, for the community and for industry

Aggie Square is where university, industry and community come together to create opportunities for everyone. This planned innovation district on UC Davis’ Sacramento campus will be home to research programs, private industry partners, classrooms, housing, and public-facing programs that engage local communities and entrepreneurs. The first phase of construction began in 2022. This phase includes two buildings designed for science, technology and engineering, a classroom building dedicated to lifelong learning, and buildings designated for housing and university programs.

Aggie Square will create a unique live/learn/work/play environment to foster collaboration and creativity. Entrepreneurs, companies and workers can thrive in our technology campus that values inclusion and creates chance encounters among creative people.

The campus will feature state-of-the-art research facilities, modern office and mixed-use space, world-class amenities and a dynamic, thriving community.

Aggie Square will create new public space with welcoming, accessible entry points that connects the university with its neighboring communities. 

The entrepreneurial partnerships we forge at Aggie Square will advance human health, enrich lifelong learning, enhance emerging technologies, support student and community development and set the stage for future collaborations.
