Testimonials
"I was thrilled to work with a team of students to explore the market opportunities for my research."
- Christine Ho, Co-Founder Imprint Energy, PhD Material Sciences
"They did a superb job in terms of technology positioning, market analysis, and business proposition."
- Jan Rabaey, Donald O. Pederson Distinguished Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science
"On every criteria – rigor, relevance, realism, grasp of the technical, policy, and business implications – this was nowhere near good, it was great. ARPA-E has high expectations. You've exceeded them and then some."
