TEAMER pairs marine energy technology developers with expert researchers and state-of-the-art facilities to provide testing and expertise for their projects. The goal: advance the industry, accelerate technologies toward commercialization, and get “steel in the water” to leverage the largely untapped resources offered by marine energy.
Now, commercialization support is available through TEAMER. Braid Theory has joined the TEAMER network to offer support in funding continuity, financial management, community engagement, marketing & outreach, market identification, IP strategy, business development, marine energy education, planning expertise, investor engagement, and more.
