AFFILIATES PROGRAM OBJECTIVES

Objectives for the Affiliates Program include:

• Engage companies and other organizations in the Initiative.
• Encourage participating organizations to have representatives participate in events, activities, and research projects to ground the research with real-world experience.
• Team faculty and graduate students with Affiliates Program representatives on research projects.
• Provide direct financial resources, which can play a meaningful role in supporting the Initiative's activities and infrastructure.
• Validate that the challenges the Initiative focuses on are the ones representing the greatest opportunities for timely, appropriate solutions.
• Create a neutral forum where companies, government agencies, non-governmental organizations, and universities can exchange best practices and pursue 'out-of-the-box' ideas for tackling environmental and energy challenges.
• Foster more rapid commercialization of 'working solutions' resulting from the Initiative. When working solutions are identified, corporate partners will be ready and well positioned to work with other relevant organizations to commercialize and bring these solutions to market.
