Harshaw Research Corporate Philosophy

The Harshaw Research Corporate Technology Center is representative of our commitment to professional excellence. The original commercial building was constructed in the 1850's by a well established national bank. Almost exactly a century later this fortress-like structure was redesigned and updated to serve as the cornerstone financial headquarters of this same institution. The new millenium provided Harshaw Research with expansion opportunities and the Lawyer’s Building located at Second and Main was renovated to create a state of the art New Product Development and Technology Center.

Harshaw Research is a diversified New Product Development Firm with a primary business model focused on “Investing In Innovation”. The philosophical determinants utilized in guiding the investment strategy of HRI are extremely conservative, highly selective, and consequently, eminently successful. Providing clients with state of the art research and development technology combined with a practical perspective, the Harshaw Research Group provides comprehensive professional expertise to assist in turning ideas into assets.

Virtually all research and development is completed by HRI staff with specific intent to provide new products that have been professionally optimized to generate client revenue through licensing. HRI’s investment in the commercialization process is predicated on an anticipated percentage participation in the client revenue produced

There are two methods of establishing a competitive advantage: Do things better than others, or do things differently. Harshaw Research applies both of these principles by forming strategic alliances with clients to bring new products, ideas, and concepts to the marketplace for the mutual benefit of HRI and its clients.
