Griffiss Institute

Description

• The Griffiss Institute (GI) was established in 2002, by New York State, as an independent 501(c)(3) entity governed by a Board of Directors. The primary role of the GI is to advocate and facilitate the cooperation of private industry, academia and government in developing solutions to critical cyber security problems. Another prime role is to build upon technologies under development at the Air Force Research Lab (AFRL) Information Directorate to further strengthen our nation's security. By partnering AFRL with private industry and academia, the GI is able to facilitate and grow the technology base of the Upstate NY region. We are focused on providing an environment conducive to the growth of technology and ideas by creating a collaborative research environment accessible to AFRL, local business and academia with the expressed goals of fostering research leading to new solutions in information assurance and spinning out new business opportunities. Technology Transfer The GI achieves technology transfer by facilitating cooperative research and development agreements (CRADAs) with private industry and other federally funded laboratories, commercial test agreements (CTAs) with customers requesting assistance in product validation/verification, and educational partnership agreements (EPAs) with universities. Workforce Education & Training Programs Professional development through training programs for laboratory personnel in software development and program management certification. Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics (STEM) Education The GI is focused on a multitude of community outreach activities from involvement in the annual Air Force Association competition, CyberPatriot, and robotics, to the year-long DimensionU competition with middle and high school students. The Information Directorate received the 2014 Federal Laboratory Consortium for Technology Transfer National STEM Award based upon the teaming of the GI and AFRL/RI workforce.
