Framing the Discussion
Questions
Have we identified the right set of grand challenges and outcomes?If not, what modifications strengthen the set of outcomes to bettermatch our strengths?
The outcomes require expertise from multiple disciplines, all wellrepresented in New York, but often with critical disciplinary areasof excellence spanning multiple institutions. How do we motivate,enable and sustain cross-institutional collaboration?
Many components of the support axis, and progress and futurehope on the outcomes axis, depend on collaboration betweenhigher education and the corporate sector. How can we build onexisting collaborations, and expand the scope of suchcollaborations. How will success in this area affect progresstoward the given outcomes, and how might new collaborationsinfluence the direction/choice of outcomes.
The Operations Axis is fairly robust. What areas needstrengthening to enable and sustain statewide researchcollaboration?
I got to GE-Niskayuna and to IBM-Yorktown once each for talks, but now you have them coming to us and providing some centripetal
encouragement that is just wonderful.
The group of attendees was very impressive and even more impressive was the level of engagement of the group. I am glad I
had the opportunity to participate.
And as one who as worked at or with a large number of New York Groups (Columbia, BNL, Albany, Cornell, Stony Brook, IBM), what is most satisfying is seeing New York pulling together to make us all
win! Bravo! What an incredible gathering!
There is an incredible opportunity, and this event an important first step in the journey. It was a pleasure to participate.

Though colored by our surroundings,we must always think outside the box …
… no matter where that takes us!
