www.cewit.org/conference2017

CEWIT2017 is the premier international forum for presentations of original research results as well as the exchange and transfer of innovative, end-to-end solutions, applications, and systems of emerging technologies in infrastructure, healthcare, and energy – three of the most critical components of a smarter global world. Specific topics of interest include but are not limited to, the Internet of Things; Cybersecurity; Big Data Analytics and Visualization; Health Technologies and Medical Devices; Smart Energy; and Smart Urban Systems, as well as Technological Applications and Tech Entrepreneurship.

Organized by the NYSTAR-designated New York State Center of Excellence in Wireless and Information Technology (CEWIT), CEWIT2017 is a destination for researchers, innovators, and entrepreneurs, across borders and disciplines, to exchange ideas, build valuable partnerships, and bring cutting-edge technology to the marketplace. The 2017 program will feature a series of research and entrepreneurial-focused tech talks, workshops, and keynote plenaries at CEWIT’s next generation research and educational facility at Stony Brook University.

Abstract Submission Deadline: August 1, 2017

Through this program, the CFB provides matching grants for Stony Brook University affiliated faculty and industry partners to collaborate on applied research and R&D projects. Projects will be evaluated based upon their potential to positively impact the corporate partner, the potential for economic impact in NYS, and the scientific and commercial merit of the proposal. The maximum award from the Center for Biotechnology will be $40K and will require a minimum 1:1 financial match from the corporate partner. Smaller projects are also encouraged. All awards, including the funding provided by the corporate partner, will be established on campus in the name of the faculty collaborator and will be governed by a corporate-sponsored research or testing agreement, depending upon the circumstances. Projects are expected to start on or about July 1. The application guidelines and forms can be found here. Deadline for submission is April 15, 2019, 5 pm.
