“MIPS has certainly proven its value as an enlightened partnership of academic expertise and business creativity,” said University of Maryland President Wallace D. Loh. “Pairing our top experts in a field with private industry at a critical moment in the innovation life cycle just makes good sense, as MIPS’ record demonstrates.
