Innovation Park Recognized for Employee Engagement

Just last month, The Centre Daily Times recognized the coolBLUE community, along with Restek and Videon Central, for focusing on not just business, but employee wellness. Restek is set to open up a 17,000-square-foot wellness center in April of 2016, while Videon Central has rewards-based biking and running summer fitness programs.

Innovation Park’s coolBLUE Community hosts employee events year round—from opportunities for networking and fitness program to tours, seminars, and even concerts. The coolBLUE community is designed to encourage networking and bring companies together as part of a larger business community.

In the past year, the coolBLUE Community has brought award-winning musicians, unique tour opportunities, and fitness programs to the park. Just this summer, employees participated in a park-wide picnic on a beautiful day. They enjoyed the company of fellow park employees while savoring summer food favorites from The Penn State Hotel and Conference Center and ice cream from Berkey Creamery. Our latest program was a Walk from Penn State to Ohio State. Groups of employees walked a few miles a day on Innovation Park’s walking paths over a 10-week period to complete the 326-mile walk.

These programs help employers retain top talent by providing benefits that their employees will love—opportunities for fun, fitness, and personal and professional development.
