FPL Business Incubator - A New Direction
|
To expedite the discovery and application of new science, the Forest Products Laboratory must now, more than ever, expand its partnerships with industry. FPL is in the initial stages of developing a business incubator for emerging or fledgling advanced wood technology business ventures. Research will be conducted in partnership with FPL scientists in existing FPL laboratories, in our new Centennial Research Facility, and in our proposed biorefinery pilot plant. Other research and office space will be available for rent in an upgraded building located between FPL and the University of Wisconsin campus. Several areas of current FPL research are ripe for joint research, development, and commercial application. And FPL scientists are always looking to explore emerging research needs and apply new research tools. The business incubator environment will provide an array of new opportunities for our industry partners to move research results to the marketplace to strengthen both our national and local economies. |
