Collaborate With Us

We believe in open collaboration. Whether you're a researcher, developer, institution, or visionary builder, there are many ways to work together on problems that matter.

COLLABORATIONS AND SUPPORT

PL R&D collaborates with researchers, builders, funders, institutions, policymakers, founders, and domain experts.

Co-fund a program

We partner with foundations, philanthropists, public agencies, companies, and research funders on grant calls, prizes, fellowships, convenings, field maps, standards efforts, and pilot programs.

Build with us

We support builders and technical teams on open-source tools, protocols, datasets, reference architectures, prototypes, and infrastructure projects aligned with one of our focus areas.

Pioneer research

We help researchers define open questions, produce field maps, develop technical roadmaps, evaluate emerging systems, and turn frontier ideas into shared knowledge.

Join a convening or working group

We host experts, policymakers, funders, and operators for focused discussions on bottlenecks, opportunity spaces, and deployment pathways.

Advise a focus area

Our field-level Science Advisory Boards bring together domain experts to shape strategy, review opportunity spaces, identify promising teams, and connect PL R&D with important work happening across the field.

Explore deployment partnerships

We work closely with institutions, governments, nonprofits, and companies to explore pilots, standards, public-good infrastructure, and real-world applications for emerging technologies to accelerate field understanding & progress.
