What is a Regional Materials and Manufacturing Network?
• Increase collaborationamong regional academic institutions
• Support regional industryeasy access to materials resourcesengaging industry to support those resources
• Equipment accessprovide increased equipment accessdistributed equipment network
• Establish a unified networkfor teaming on grantsdeveloping state support
• Promote Wisconsin and the regionas a leader in materials
A network to drive materials science and development in Wisconsinand beyond
The RM2N is a collaborative network of UW-system schools and industrial partners to

• UW system 13 four-year, 13 two-year,and UW-extension180k students$6b budget, with extensive materials centered programs and research
• IndustryDozens of innovative companies developingnext-generation materials technologies
• Materials InfrastructureHundreds of millions of dollars of materials infrastructure in academia and industry
• Wisconsin is the #2 state in the US for manufactured goods!
A Regional Materials Network helps us more fully realize our potential.
Where and why is there a Regional Materials and Manufacturing Network?

• GoalHelp participants learn abouteach other’s resources and needs.
Formulate a roadmap for establishingthe Regional Materials Network.
• Attendees57 registered attendees from a range of UW system schools(e.g., UW-Madison, UW-Stout, UW-Platteville, UW-Milwaukee)companies and institutions (e.g., the USDA Forest Products Laboratory).
• RecommendationsIncrease Access: Portal to available resourcesShare Resources: Mechanisms for sharing equipment resources using remote access
• Build Community: Establish and grow networked community to support collaboration

Five Focus Groups were held with Industry across the state to better define industry needs:
Focus Group Participation:• 31 Companies• 18 RM2N University Faculty and Staff
members • Two centers, One Institute in the UW
system.• Over 150 ideas were generated:
• Listing to industry needs,• Suggesting New Services to offer • How to market RM2N

RM2N and RM2N Industrial Affiliates Cooperative Efforts
• Making WI academic resources more accessible to industry– Web portal for expertise, equipment, contacts– Greater access to whole system through local contacts
• Hosting meetings with both WI schools and industry– Developing industry funded research– Enhancing technology transfer– Creating opportunities for student recruiting at internship and employee level
• Supporting discussion and communication between WI schools about best practices and opportunities with respect to industry relations.
• Providing and integrated academic-industry network – Enable communication for developing large initiatives, e.g., to state and federal government– Provide a forum for initiating complex and novel collaborations through workshops, email
lists, etc.
