Working with Industry
As a DOE Bioenergy Research Center, JBEI serves as a crucible for fundamental scientific discovery and innovation. JBEI understands that our scientific advances need to translate into commercially viable technologies, methods, and tools. Partnering with industry helps us achieve this goal. Companies accelerate innovation through sponsored research and illuminate commercial challenges that might not be apparent from the lab bench. Private industry is also the vehicle to develop JBEI inventions into commercial products and bring them to market.
JBEI partners with companies that wish to leverage JBEI’s expertise and extensive resources. Sponsored research provides the greatest benefit by leveraging JBEI’s multidisciplinary talent and technology to provide your company with research that might not be possible otherwise or might be too costly and time consuming to undertake internally. Companies may also place a researcher at JBEI for training, join our Industry Advisory Committee, sponsor seminars and education, or join at a modest level suitable for small companies and others new to biofuels.
