Overview
The objective of the CPS symposium is to bring together researchers, entrepreneurs and program directors from industry, university and government to discuss the project-based collaborations (e.g., STTR/SBIR, IUCRC, Co-Op) on the Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and Internet of Things (IoT), including but not limited to AI/ML, digital twin and cyber-physical security. In particular, we want to pair high-tech start-ups and university labs to pursue federal grants opportunities, create disruptive innovations and foster bold entrepreneurship. Please register to attend for our headcount and planning. It is an invitation-only event and is free to our invited attendees.
The symposium also has sponsorship opportunity: $1000 Platinum, $500 Gold, $300 Silver. The sponsorship will be used to cover the food and allow more students to attend. The sponsorship company logo will be highlighted on the web page, program booklet and introduction sides.
