The U.S. Industry Coalition (USIC) is a nonprofit corporate membership association of high tech businesses, associations, and research institutions who are actively engaged in technology commercialization in the service of global security, peace and prosperity. Through a USIC corporate membership, companies have access to a wide range of technology commercialization expertise and resources.
Since 1994, USIC has facilitated projects for U.S. companies through the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)’s Global Initiatives for Proliferation Prevention (GIPP) program. Through the GIPP program, USIC’s members and corporate partners have utilized the expertise of former weapons scientists in Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan and other Eurasian countries to develop a wide variety of technologies.
In facilitating these projects, USIC has developed long-standing relationships with technical experts in a variety of domestic and international venues including:
USIC’s experience in fostering these public-private partnerships finds us uniquely positioned to help technology-based companies find the scientific talent to generate new technologies.
USIC’s expertise in providing access to critical information resources, helps member firms move technology out of the lab and into the marketplace.
USIC’s member companies represent a broad range of high tech firms, both large and small, that can serve as valuable associates and industry partners for companies bringing new technologies into the marketplace. USIC continues to forge new partnerships in the public and private sector which will provide it members with new opportunities.
