Advancing Scientific Research, Shared Cyberinrastructure, and Economic and Workforce Development
The Milwaukee Institute, Inc. is a not-for-profit IRS 501(c)(3) research organization. Formed in November of 2007 by leading Milwaukee industrialists, the Institute is dedicated to the advancement of the Midwest high-tech economy using a strategy that promotes the widespread application of high-performance computational resources and shared cyberinfrastructure.
A shared technical infrastructure is needed to expand capabilities of public-private partnerships and new high-technology ventures that require access to contemporary modeling, simulation, visualization and analysis tools -- tools that enable collaborative solutions to large-scale grand challenge problems facing the region’s academic, commercial and public services organizations, problems that cannot be solved by the unilateral, single point solutions of the past.
