SCIGC Industrial Affiliates Program

SCIGC’s Industrial Affiliates Program allows members to receive special privileges and be recognized as world leading organizations, working with Stanford to push the frontiers of technology, sustainability, innovation, and design.  Our affiliates program is the only opportunity for Korean corporates to directly support ongoing work and interaction with our research team in Korea, thereby making it much easier to collaborate and participate in our growing list of programs, workshops, and events.  Additionally, becoming an affiliate member is an attractive way for corporations to support Stanford in Korea, and our center's mission to bring Stanford University to Korea, while gaining knowledge about ongoing research and other efforts.  As a member, corporations and organizations will have access to a variety of SCIGC events, engagement opportunities, and discussions with researchers and faculty affiliated with SCIGC. 

Prospective SCIGC Industrial Affiliates Program members are encouraged to review the Stanford University Policies Affecting Industrial Affiliates Program Memberships.
