Facilitation of sponsored research
through research consortia
The Plant and Seed Sciences Partnership
Program (PSPP)
is coordinated by the
Seed Biotechnology Center (SBC) within the
College of Agricultural and Environmental
Sciences at the University of California, Davis
(UC Davis).
The PSPP is a Corporate
Affiliate Partnership Program (CAPP) designed to
facilitate interaction between UC Davis and Seed
Central and its members.
The PSPP offers three tiers of participation
customized to the research and educational
objectives of Seed Central and its members:
-
Tier 1 offers Seed Central and its
members a mechanism to collaborate with UC Davis
to create and deliver educational opportunities
and networking activities focused on issues
relevant to the seed industry.
-
Tier 2 provides a mechanism for creating
corporate consortia to sponsor and conduct
collaborative research following scope of work
collectively agreed upon by the participating
members and the University, which may accelerate
commercialization of new discoveries.
-
Tier 3 allows Seed Central and each of
its members to take advantage of the PSPP
corporate relations services to facilitate
individual sponsored research agreements, fund
projects specific to their respective interests
and speed technology transfer.
The
Plant and Seed Sciences Partnership Program has
received final UC Davis approval on October 8th,
2012.
