Corporate Technology Needs

With a renewed focus on bringing research to markets, government funding agencies have created programs to fund promising, impactful research with commercial potential:

• National Science Foundation Innovation Corps (I-Corps)
• DC I-Corps node
• Small Business Innovation Research grants
• Small Business Technology Transfer grants

The George Washington University's (GW) Technology Commercialization Office (TCO) is always looking for opportunities to match GW research with these and other technology development programs.

Our ultimate aim is to pair your work with a partner who can provide maximum impact. Many companies advertise specific areas of research in which they are seeking technological solutions.
