The establishment of the special economic zone area is aligned to the Republic Act No. 7916 known as the "Special Economic Zone Act of 1995". This will empower the University to develop academic arrangements for institutional capacity building with appropriate public and private as well as local and foreign institutions and agencies.

Aligning to the policy of the government to strengthen collaboration with the academe, and industries to accelerate Research and Development (R&D), including the facilitation of the commercialization of outputs, provision of support to nurture innovative startups and spin-offs among other initiatives to maximize Science, Technology and Innovation (STI) for economic development by establishing KIST Ecozones in accredited SUCs and Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). The academe plays a major role in the establishment of KIST Ecozones by providing and developing such areas to optimize growth conditions for business and innovations. Director General Tereso O.
