Applied Research Initiative at PEI Advances Arizona’s Innovation Economy
The Partnership for Economic Innovation is on a mission to fulfill our potential as a state to become a world-class, innovation-driven economy. A place where technologies invented in Arizona address complex challenges of our time and all Arizonans have an opportunity and a clear pathway to the ‘good jobs’ of tomorrow’s economy.
Launched in 2019, the Applied Research Initiative is rapidly advancing Arizona toward this future. Through industry-led applied research centers, the initiative bridges the gap between discovery and commercialization with access to non-dilutive funding and entrepreneurial resources. We empower Arizona's innovators to turn groundbreaking concepts into impactful realities.
