Corporate Participation of Key Importance to MRS William Katz General Electric Company*
The broad field of materials science has experienced an enormous growth in the last few years. This popularity is evidenced by both the increased attention being attributed to this topic by many scientific bodies as well as the explosive growth in the technical literature. We firmly believe that MRS has established itself as the premiere society for the dissemination of materials-related research. Of vital importance to the continued growth and success of MRS is the valued support received from various organizations. The purpose of the Corporate Participation Committee is to actively solicit such support from the private sector.
The value of this support to the Society cannot be overstated. In the past, several symposia have been run solely from contributions from affiliate members. In fact, the individual symposia chairpersons are prime recruiters in our efforts to gain the required financing needed to conduct their sessions. Our relationship with our Corporate Affiliates goes well beyond merely acquiring financial support. We highly regard—in fact we seek out—their ideas for new and topical themes for upcoming symposia. We view our Corporate Affiliates as playing key roles in helping to guide MRS to ensure the Society's responsiveness in an environment of rapidly changing technology.
