Strategic Partnership for Industrial Resurgence (SPIR)
SPIR Report – 2010 – 2011
SPIR, a State University of New York (SUNY) grant program, fills a gap in state
industrial assistance programs through technically advanced, multidisciplinary
assistance delivered on a fast turnaround basis to New York State companies.
Companies receiving SPIR funds – which typically average about one-third
of the overall project cost – have access to more than 50 UB faculty
engineers and applied scientists from the seven schools of engineering.
