Successful Federal Technology Transfer Act (FTTA) partnerships demonstrate the many advantages of technology transfer and collaboration. EPA and partner organizations create valuable and applicable technologies for the marketplace.

External partners can use EPA’s high-quality research to develop new products and collaborate on additional research. EPA benefits from outside expertise, product development, and funding to develop solutions that can be rapidly applied to environmental problems. The public benefits from these agreements because new technologies reach the market quickly. Overall, successful FTTA partnerships further the goal of a cleaner, healthier environment.
