Businesses seeking partnerships that do not already have an established technical relationship with a Berkeley Lab scientist should contact our Partnership Expert.

Your company can partner on a specific funding opportunity, or it can express general partnering interest.

Entities with public or private funding can work with Berkeley Lab for research of a defined scope and can use our facilities and work with our researchers as principal investigator (PI).

Entities can also access many capabilities at Berkeley Lab at no charge, through programs such as vouchers, prizes, and non-proprietary user agreements.

Through SPO, we can partner with you to identify new funding opportunities and obtain public funding from several sources including DOE, other state and federal agencies, Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR).
