Development Acceleration and Co-creation through Coalition

Speed

Industry and top-tier academia face intense competition, requiring rapid R&D. Unlike public proposal systems, Coalition use (membership-based) does not require review of purpose or mandatory publication of results.

"Reserve and use."

Monthly reservation windows up to 2 months ahead ensure business speed is maintained. Mail-in and proxy measurement options are also available.

Security

The core of R&D is top secret. In Coalition use, there is no need to disclose the purpose or detailed content of your research.

All results belong to the user, with no obligation to publish. Protect your proprietary technology and know-how while obtaining world-class data.

Technical consultations with PhoSIC are conducted under strict confidentiality. Your status as a Coalition member is also kept private by default.

Synergy - Coalition Matching

Over 30 co-creation projects launched within the first 1.5 years

PhoSIC's unique industry-academia collaboration model, the "Coalition Concept," goes beyond simple facility use. It enables member companies and academic partners to form a "Coalition" to solve challenges where in-house expertise may be lacking. Dedicated concierges match company challenges with optimal academic expertise to create new value.
