As part of a newly announced open and competitive process that reviewed more than 450 proposals from 200 universities in 28 countries spanning the globe, HP selected 41 projects at 34 institutions.
"Deepening HP Labs' strategic collaboration with those in academia, government and the commercial sector ensures HP's research endeavours result in high-impact research that meets the scientific and business objectives of HP and its partners," said Prith Banerjee, senior vice president, research, HP, and director, HP Labs. "The professors' deep technical expertise, HP Labs researchers' domain and industry knowledge, and governments' abilities to fund innovative research will come together to address the world's most complex IT challenges."
HP Labs Innovation Research Awards provide project funding of up to $100,000 for one year to each academic institution and are renewable for a total of three years based on research progress and HP business requirements. These awards include support for one graduate student researcher, who is also eligible to apply to the HP Labs internship programme. The next request for proposals is planned for spring 2009.
