Artist rendering of Vanderbilt Owen’s campus in West Palm Beach

Vanderbilt Owen reveals plans for business and tech campus in West Palm Beach

Nashville, TN: “As Vanderbilt University continues to partner with the Palm Beach region to explore the potential for a campus in West Palm Beach, the university released artist renderings of its planned West Palm Beach Campus. The renderings offer a preview of its vision to create a vibrant graduate school that focuses on business, data science and AI, and a state-of-the-art innovation center that fosters collaboration among startups, investors, established businesses and academia.

The proposed project has achieved remarkable progress in a short time. In the fall of 2024, Vanderbilt was unanimously granted five acres of county-owned land and two acres of city-owned land for the location by county and city commissioners, respectively. The next step to realize the vision for this campus now shifts to reaching a fundraising target of $300 million set by Vanderbilt’s Board of Trust. Today’s release of new renderings aims to generate awareness and excitement for community philanthropic investment in the project.

“We are delighted to share these renderings and our vision for a West Palm Beach campus,” Chancellor Daniel Diermeier said. “The images show that we are planning a unique learning and research environment that nurtures collaboration and innovation and is sustainable in all senses.”
