Technology issues are always a concern for a business. The questions of
"How does the technology, especially emergent technology, fit into current business plans?" and "How will it
impact the bottom line?" are key considerations for investigating emerging
technology. The answers are not always obvious and the path for selection is
not straightforward. Many a business has failed due to attempting
efforts beyond their capability. The Foundation personnel have been through this process numerous times. We can assist
in exploring the choices available and aid the determination of the
challenges that lie ahead in transitioning the technology to manufacturing.

We also work with institutions of higher learning to foster educational programs and to promote efforts directed at commercialization of developing technologies. The size and scope of these efforts will determine the amount of the Foundation's involvement. For information pertaining to these types of programs, please contact the Foundation.
