External Partnerships

The Andlinger Center works to solve complex energy and environment challenges that benefit from the diverse expertise and perspectives of a strong network of stakeholder groups including academic, corporate, government, and non-profit organizations. Engagement with these partners through research and events helps catalyze knowledge transfer and accelerate deployment of applied solutions. Conferences, workshops, seminars, and other meetings are held with the goal of igniting authentic, thoughtful interaction across sectors that lead to new insights and novel innovations. An important vehicle for this collaboration is a formidable corporate affiliates program administered by the Center called “Princeton E-ffiliates Partnership” or simply “E-ffiliates.”

E-ffiliates

Princeton E-ffiliates Partnership (E-ffiliates) is a campus-wide membership program that positions organizations to engage in close collaborations with academic experts, Princeton students, and other partners from diverse sectors on global energy challenges and environmental concerns. E-ffiliates provides a robust perspective on real-world problems and helps engender honest dialogue and cooperation between our members and the wider Princeton University community.

The 14th Annual Meeting will explore opportunities and challenges for implementing circular approaches, with the goal of identifying key priorities for research, policy, and industry in the journey toward a more sustainable and resource-efficient future.
