Partnership Opportunities

Join forces with research and innovation underway at the University of South Carolina for a role in transforming individual lives, industry, communities and local economies.

Every day at South Carolina's flagship university, we translate knowledge into economic opportunities. South Carolina's colleges and campuses are hubs of the talent, entrepreneurship, and research exploration it takes to fuel technology development, thought innovation and scientific discovery. From notable patent granting to managing complex challenge grants, it's easy to see why Carnegie Foundation has designated South Carolina as an institution of very high research activity. 

Convergence

The University of South Carolina is a thriving academic community that drives ideas and innovation — especially those of industry and research partners. Support university research efforts or launch a partnership to engage with the students, world-class faculty and infrastructure of one of the state's leading research institutions.
