MEIA has been designed to combine the expertise of Maryland inventors, researchers, founders, and entrepreneurs with strategic partners, local business executives, and service providers to further advance their technology and create new, investible clean energy businesses.
“Maryland universities have become internationally recognized for their leadership in federally funded energy research,” said Dr. Eric D. Wachsman, Director of the Maryland Energy Innovation Institute and William L. Crentz Centennial Chair in Energy Research at the University of Maryland. “And it is thus critical that Maryland invest in innovation programs such as this if it is to economically benefit from the tremendous commercial potential of this research.”
