Company History: From NASA to Now

Nerac began operating in 1966 as the New England Research Application Center, an experimental collaboration between the University of Connecticut and the National Aeronautics & Space Administration (NASA).

Over time, Nerac broadened its technology resources to encompass the full spectrum of engineering, scientific and business disciplines. In 1985, Nerac separated from the University of Connecticut and incorporated under the name Nerac, Inc. Having succeeded in its NASA-sponsored mission, Nerac severed its ties with NASA in 1991.

Today, Nerac provides customized research services for clients across all industrial sectors. Combining a powerful search engine and a dedicated computing environment, Nerac’s Analyst’s use international engineering, scientific, patent and business databases as well as professional contacts to provide individualized research answers and alerts.

Nerac has grown from a trial-run experiment to a multi-million dollar corporation. As our services, partnerships and client base continue to grow, we are focused on the future. The methods we use to conduct business may change, but the goal remains the same: deliver results our clients need to foster their growth and success.
