Stanford Energy 3.0 hosts major conferences, focus group meetings, new faculty seminars, plus other custom meetings. In addition, the Fellow-Mentor-Advisor program and the Visiting Scholar program provide ways to make connections at Stanford.
- Members are invited to affiliates program annual conferences and other events. These events may include technical discussions, tutorials, workshops, and student presentations, which provide a unique opportunity for industry members to learn about cutting-edge research at Stanford.
- Focus groups provide comprehensive coverage of Stanford research in areas such as batteries and energy storage, smart grid, and solar technologies.
- The New Faculty Seminar Series provides access and visibility to new faculty and networking opportunities with other affiliates program members.
- Custom meetings with professors enable in-depth investigations of specific topics. These meetings are arranged at the request of member companies.
- The Fellow-Mentor-Advisor Program includes an allocation to a professor to help support research. We call this the FMA Program in recognition of the three-way relationship between the Ph.D. student (fellow), the corporate affiliate member (mentor), and the Stanford professor (advisor). This program provides ongoing Stanford connections with our industry members companies.
- Visiting Scholars provide an opportunity for member companies to send a researcher to Stanford to study and engage in research under the direction of a Stanford faculty member. The program is intended to build relationships for collaboration through an exchange of ideas. Appointments are usually made for up to one year.
