Technology commercialization involves a diverse set of skills and activities that you may not have available within your company. Through this collaboration, you will have access to all business and manufacturing related services by accessing:
Our first collaboration has already begun with Cambrian Innovation, an environmental product firm, located in Boston, Massachusetts. Cambrian Innovation, a client of Massachusetts MEP, focuses on solving problems at the energy/water nexus by developing a pipeline of complementary products using advanced biology. The firm is able to help a range of industries including wastewater treatment, renewable natural gas, distributed sensing, and aerospace reuse materials and energy to reduce costs and maximize resources.
In addition to the services Massachusetts MEP provides, CEA will also support Cambrian Innovation by connecting them with an incubator from their network. Fraunhofer USA incubator, an applied research and development laboratory dedicated to the commercialization of clean energy technologies, will provide Cambrian Innovation with a variety of mentoring and business services.

RELATED INITIATIVES
Technology Acceleration: As manufacturers develop new products, enhance existing products, strive to expand and diversify markets, develop and improve production and engineering systems and processes, and work to strengthen competitive positions within supply chains – technology in some shape or form is frequently a lynchpin enabler. As such, MEP is developing a multi-faceted approach to assist U.S. manufacturers’ ability to systematically identify and capitalize on opportunities to leverage technology toward the realization of their growth and competitiveness objectives.

Sustainability: MEP will help companies gain a competitive edge by reducing environmental costs and impact by developing new environmentally-focused materials, products and processes to gain entry into new markets. Sustainable practices also increase manufacturing's contribution to the economy by helping companies embrace environmental goals profitably. MEP will develop and expand strong and effective partnerships with government and industry to ensure sustainability is embraced at all levels of the economy – from the largest employers to the smallest suppliers to the workforce itself.
