CRG Achieves 95th Percentile for Commercialization Rating
 Cornerstone
Research Group recently achieved an extremely high 95th percentile
commercialization achievement index (CAI) rating. Based on a randomized
statistical technique comparing small businesses with the same
number of SBIR Phase II contracts, a CAI of 95 indicates a company
is in the 95th percentile of performance for commercializing SBIR-developed
technology. The index score is a percentile ranking which ranges
from 100 (highest) to 0 (lowest) and shows the commercialization
success of an SBIR/STTR research and development company.
CRG's commercialization strategy and efforts have
resulted in technology transfer and leveraging of millions of
dollars of SBIR/STTR research into other research programs, both
government and commercial, as well as high-tech products which
have been transitioned to market. (11-15-2008)
Deep Core Curing Featured in HP Composites
Article
 The
November 2008 issue of High Performance Composites magazine
ran an article entitled, "In Situ Composite Repair Builds
on Basics," in which CRG's deep-core curing method for aircraft
composites is featured in a yellow side bar on page 61. The article
discusses options for in situ repairs of commercial composite
aircraft.
Deep-core composite repair was an early research project for CRG
which focused on a targeted method for curing adhesive in honeycombed
or thick composite structures. Read
