 ACTIVITIES
TRA will initiate the AIA through the following activities:
- Host virtual university capability roundtables where each university shares their AI faculty and capability.
- Host an industry-university AI information exchange program.
- Host a round table where the chambers present their plans for developing and promoting regional AI capabilities.
- Work with the federal agencies (NSF, U.S. Depts. of Transportation, Homeland Security, Defense, Energy, and Education) to identify opportunities for regional proposals.
- Work with the chambers to identify university-industry collaborations.
- Develop academic-industry-public agency partnerships for projects to address AI use-cases.
