IRIS Seeks to Develop Partnerships with Small Businesses
IRIS is a leading research and policy advisory center located in the Department of Economics at the University of Maryland, College Park. We work to facilitate economic growth and improve governance in developing and transition countries, focusing on the role of institutions — the formal and informal rules by which individuals organize economic, political, and social activity. In partnership with scholars, reformers, and international donors, IRIS conducts research, designs and implements programs, and promotes the sharing and application of innovative ideas and insights.
IRIS is always open to forming partnerships with small firms that bring technical capabilities in niche areas as well as firms with broader scope that can complement our work in international development.
