Partner with CREATE
CREATE partners with industry, non-profits, community groups, and government to achieve translational impact and mutual benefit. Translation activities take our research into the world in the form of products and services, and ensure that diverse voices inform our innovations.
Our goals include enabling CREATE innovations to move into the world, supporting sustainable research deployments, and establishing cooperative relationships between researchers and the community.
Reach out to Anat Caspi, CREATE Director for Translation, to learn more.
