How to Become a Member
Industry members benefit from CCEFP research and resources
CCEFP Industry Members enjoy many benefits in return for their financial contributions. All will share in opportunities to meet the researchers and their students and will receive regular updates on the progress of the work that is being done on the research projects. All will have royalty-free licenses to non-patented discoveries and inventions (click here for a copy of our membership agreement). The CCEFP will use its principal and sustaining representatives to participate in the Industrial Advisory Board making recommendations on research projects and the resource apportionment. All will have the opportunity to directly benefit from the patented inventions based on each company's level of pledged support.
