ITHACA, N.Y. — The Cornell Center for Materials Research (CCMR) JumpStart program announced it has started accepting applications for projects that faculty and students will work on to help New York businesses beginning in September.
The CCMR JumpStart program is a “semester-long partnership that pairs New York state small businesses that have well-defined technical needs with Cornell [University] faculty and students who have the expertise to help, the center said in a news release.
Under the program, CCMR provides a dollar-for-dollar match for project expenses up to $5,000, according to CCMR.
All New York businesses are eligible to apply, and total project costs cannot exceed $15,000.
Previous projects that CCMR has labeled “success stories” on its website focused on areas that include developing prototypes and “innovative” products; exploring new markets; manufacturing; product improvement or technical “roadblocks,” and new materials.
Those businesses interested in participating in the program can apply at http://www.ccmr.cornell.edu/jumpstart by July 1.
