The NPDP Affiliate Program is designed to facilitate dialogue between academia and industry. Supported by organization member fees, the NPDP Affiliate Program provides an avenue for industry to contribute to and sustain research and teaching. Companies engage with our research programs and with participating faculty and students. Benefits of being an NPDP Affiliate include attending annual meetings, receiving copies of reports and publications, and having the opportunity to recruit students. Any interested company may join our affiliate program. The current annual costs for membership varies from $2,500 to $30,000 per year depending on organization size.

Faculty and staff affiliated with the NPDP include Professor Ronaldo Borja, Professor Jack Baker, and Dr. Martin McCann. For more information on becoming an Affiliate of the NPDP, please contact Professor Martin McCann mmccann@stanford.edu
