AT THE LABORATORY

Partnering

Some of the most innovative technology transfer at Los Alamos today involves collaborative projects with industry. In collaborative research arrangements, DOE and industry jointly sponsor a research project. Costs, personnel, facilities, equipment, or research capabilities may be shared for mutual benefit. This provides industry with an excellent way to leverage its research activities.

A company may wish to sponsor LANL scientists to conduct research on a specified issue if we have researchers with the appropriate capabilities and interest in the project. The unique equipment and specialized staff expertise at Los Alamos provide research opportunities that may not be available anywhere else in the world.

In addition to these options we have personnel exchange agreements and user facility agreements. We have numerous ways in which private industry can partner with the Laboratory.
