"Ashland's participation in the project enabled us to establish networks with innovative modeling companies, leading to new business opportunities as a resin supplier for three other IACMI projects. As an IACMI member, we’ve had the opportunity to leverage shared funds and existing equipment at Michigan State University, Zoltek, and UDRI. By using these existing resources, we didn’t have to buy the equipment and have reduced our learning curve"
