About the Board

The IPRT Industrial Advisory Board was chartered in November 1999 to provide IPRT advice in formulating mid- to long-term research plans and directions. Specifically, the Board provides insight into future industrial technical directions and issues, identifies new technical opportunities for IPRT that will enhance our industrial outreach, familiarizes IPRT with new directions in industry, and directs IPRT in the development of research plans.
