Funding Beyond the Grant: Finding the Best-Fit Funding Model for Your Project or Center

While project and center leaders are often very skilled at grant writing, seeking alternative funding solutions can be difficult. For some, it may seem too long or difficult a road or it may just not be clear what sort of alternative funding streams are possible or attainable. In this session, participants will hear about examples of revenue generating activities that have worked for other ATE PIs, and be encouraged to brainstorm possible avenues for themselves. Special guest Deidre Sullivan, PI of MATE, will share her experience in experimenting with a range of revenue-generating tactics from sponsorships to online sales. ​
