3DIcon has established an SRA (Sponsored Research Agreement) with the University of Oklahoma (OU), whereby 3DIcon’s technologies are being developed by leading researchers and scientists in state-of-the-art research facilities in the Norman as well as the Tulsa Campuses. Harnessing the resources of a major university with proven research capabilities greatly expands and hastens the development process of an early stage company on the cusp of disruptive technology and does so in a cost efficient manner. To replicate these resources on a private basis would be prohibitively expensive. Not just that, it would be practically impossible to assemble such a diverse, multi-disciplinary team of proven experts.
