Industry-Sponsored Research Partnerships

Industry-sponsored research at the University of Wisconsin–Madison comprises an important component of our research portfolio. These partnerships support important faculty research and the growth of new technologies and discoveries. They also bring new products to market, while supporting students and creating future job opportunities.

The Office of Business Engagement (OBE) serves as the central campus liaison for business and industry partners interested in research partnerships, helping them connect with schools, colleges and other units on campus. Contact OBE to begin your discussion.

For faculty and staff, please contact Research and Sponsored Programs for questions about ongoing sponsored agreements with industry or other types of sponsored agreements.
