The Center proposes an innovative technical management approach for research, development, and implementation of these new and exciting technologies, with a high level of practical experience, contacts and confidentiality. The purpose of this effort is to expedite the development of nano and micro science technology, along with other emerging technologies, for commercial systems covering both terrestrial and space applications. The Center offers industry and government a reliable, high quality alternative to in-house research and development, along with a new paradigm in the approach to the research and development of these emerging technologies.

This innovative approach considers and addresses fundamental issues such as bridging the gap between quantum physical science and applications engineering, coordinating the thinly dispersed talent pool, synergizing verities of fundamental research, the requisite institutional players, and management of the effort.
