Priority Companies

Corporate Engagement manages a portfolio of more than 50 companies and corporate foundations that partner with Northwestern University in a variety of ways. If you plan to reach out to any of these organizations, you are welcome to contact our team for background information on their current University relationships, research focus areas, and any other important factors, such as limitations on the number of funding applications that can be made from Northwestern.

Some of our priority companies have requested all communication from Northwestern go through their primary relationship manager. For those companies, we have listed below the Corporate Engagement team member who most closely supports that relationship. Please coordinate with them as you plan your outreach.

For all other companies, please keep us updated on your engagement activities.
