FUNDING STRATEGY OVERVIEW
EnGen Institute’s long term funding goal is to attain the necessary level of
funding, by being productive and providing services to society and
government, to become self-sufficient to the extent that the institute is
able to fully support its mission and work towards realizing it’s long term
objectives.
This can be achieved by providing research services and conducting research
with research partners to produce solutions and applied science IP. This IP
can be licenced for manufacture or to spin-off companies (industrialization)
which then establish commercial partnerships (commercialization).
