Trienens-Q Translational Fund
Fueling the journey from lab discovery to commercial opportunity
The Translational Fund provides $90,000 to $120,000 in milestone-driven support for Northwestern research teams developing cleantech solutions. This funding is designed to help move early-stage technologies closer to commercialization through prototype development, technical de-risking, and market validation.
Key Features:
- Open to faculty-led projects based on existing Northwestern intellectual property
- Focus on technologies with clear environmental benefits and high commercial potential
- Guided by industrial advisors and commercialization experts
Funded Projects Include:
- Hydrogen storage systems using Fe-based redox power beds
- Recyclable polyurethane foams for industrial applications
- Clay-based solid-state electrolytes for lithium metal batteries
- Low-temperature, solventless chemical recycling of Nylon 6
