The Partners
NASA Ames Research Park is proud to have these companies as industry partners:
Bay Area Environmental Research Institute
The Bay Area Environmental Research (BAER) Institute is a California 501(c)3 nonprofit corporation dedicated to promoting and conducting research in science, particularly atmospheric and space science. Established in 1993, BAER Institute has grown from two employees to 55 employees working on 11 active cooperative agreements, mostly with NASA at Ames Research Center.
Bloom Energy
Bloom Energy is a provider of breakthrough solid oxide fuel cell technology generating clean, highly efficient onsite power from multiple fuel sources. Founded in 2001 with a mission to make clean, reliable energy affordable for everyone in the world, Bloom Energy Servers are currently producing power for many Fortune 500 companies including Apple, Google, Wal-Mart, AT&T, eBay, Staples, The Coca-Cola Company, as well as notable non-profit organizations such as Caltech and Kaiser Permanente. Also, with its Mission Critical Systems practice, Bloom Energy provides grid-independent power for critical loads in data centers and manufacturing.
Breakthrough Prize Foundation
The Breakthrough Prize Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing our knowledge of the Universe. In 2012, the Breakthrough Prize Foundation started ‘The Breakthrough Prizes’ – the largest scientific awards in the world, which honor important, primarily recent, achievements in the categories of Fundamental Physics, Life Sciences and Mathematics. The prize ceremony is held annually at Moffett Field’s Hangar One in the NASA Research Park.
Carnegie Mellon University Silicon Valley
Carnegie Mellon University's Silicon Valley campus, established in 2002, is an extension of its renowned engineering and computer science programs from its Pittsburgh campus. It aims to cultivate leaders in global technology innovation and management through graduate programs in software engineering, software management, information technology, and innovation and mobility. Currently, it enrolls over 160 students across these programs, with additional participants in bi-coastal programs. The campus also hosts several research centers, including the Carnegie Mellon Innovations Laboratory, CyLab Mobility Research Center, Disaster Management Initiative, and Center for Open Source Investigation, focusing on cutting-edge research in areas like aerospace technology, context-aware applications, disaster recovery, and open source technology integration.
Geometrics
Manufactures geophysical instruments used to non-intrusively see under the ground or water. Their sensors are installed on aircraft, towed behind boats and carried by surveyors. They lead the world in providing top-quality, highly-portable geophysical instruments for researchers and universities, exploration companies, geotechnical companies, and government agencies. Geometrics is a division of OYO Corporation and is Headquarter in San Jose, CA.
Moffett Field Historical Society Museum
The Moffett Field Historical Society (MFHS) is a volunteer-run non-profit organization that operates the Moffett Field Historical Society Museum. The purpose of the MFHS is to educate the public about Moffett Field and the role it served to the country since it began in 1933. The Museum preserves the local military and NASA historical artifacts and presents the rich aviation history of Moffett Field.
Rhombus Power, Inc.
Rhombus has developed a platform to detect sub-atomic particles with unprecedented accuracy. Our first product, called Mercury, is a neutron detector that is modular, accurate, solid-state, easy to use, cost-competitive, and free of false positives. Mercury meets the ANSI standards for neutron detection for a range of form factors – from handhelds to portal monitors and beyond. Mercury's performance has been independently verified by the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
RMV Technology Group, LLC
RMV Technology Group LLC (RMV) is a leading expert in Electrostatics (ESD) Solutions, EMI/EMC Consulting, Flexible Electronics, and 3D Materials Testing. Since 2008, headquartered at NASA Ames Research Center, RMV has become the largest ESD Test Laboratory on a NASA site. Winner of numerous awards from NASA, the US Military, and Corporate America, RMV is a high-tech Serviced Disabled Veteran Owned company and NASA Industry partner, serving NASA, the DoD, and the manufacturing sector with innovative solutions.
Teton Aerospace, LLC
Teton's mission is to demonstrate a new, more flexible, low cost, rapid development methodology for space scientists and spacecraft engineers. Teton Aerospace consulting offers a range of services, including, but not limited to: STEM program development, design/conceptual development, mechanical engineering (CAD), PDR/CDR, testing facilities through Morehead State University, and small satellite launches through GAUSS team.
U.S. Geological Survey
USGS provides science about the natural hazards that threaten lives and livelihoods; the water, energy, minerals, and other natural resources we rely on; the health of our ecosystems and environment; and the impacts of climate and land-use change. USGS scientists develop new methods and tools to supply timely, relevant, and useful information about the Earth and its processes.
Vasper Systems
Vasper Technology is designed to stimulate the production of natural human growth hormone (HGH) by using a revolutionary patent-pending device in conjunction with traditional exercise equipment. The benefits of increasing and maintaining high levels of HGH include increased energy levels, an increased metabolic rate, accelerated post-injury recovery, clarity of mind, restful sleep, and many other desirable effects on the body. HGH is produced by the human body via the pituitary gland when we either perform intense exercise or get a sufficient amount of deep sleep. However, most people do not reach an adequate level of physical exertion or deep sleep to produce a sufficient amount of HGH to replenish and rejuvenate their bodies. The Vasper device is based on cooled-liquid vascular compression, core cooling technology, and active electrical grounding technology.
