All three Laboratories play an important role in U.S. economic security and in helping American businesses innovate in the global market place. The Laboratories have a long history of licensing technical innovations to the private sector and in collaborating on specific science and technology problems with industry, academia, and government.
Thousands of companies have benefited from the technology transfer programs at the laboratories. Technology transfer has also had a strong positive impact on U.S. job creation, investment opportunities, and regional economic development.
Lawrence Livermore, Lawrence Berkeley and Los Alamos laboratories are managed by the University of California for the United States Department of Energy.
