Next Steps
Contact the Affiliates Program
The first step to becoming an affiliate member is to phone [650-721-1637] or email Steve Eglash [seglash@stanford.edu], Executive Director of the Energy and Environment Affiliates Program.
Initial Meetings and Follow-up
A company’s engagement with the Energy and Environment Affiliates Program can be as varied as the companies themselves. Initial meetings identify the company’s goals and areas of mutual interest. Follow-on meetings between the company’s staff and Stanford faculty develop one or more close relationships.
A professor’s research group is chosen for the company’s Fellow-Mentor-Advisor Program allocation. Other interactions such as visits by Stanford students and faculty, sponsored research, and visiting scientists from the company are developed as appropriate.
