U.S. Department of Energy national laboratory in Livermore, California with high‑performance computing, the National Ignition Facility, secure prototyping labs, and an open campus for industry collaboration. Proximity to Silicon Valley speeds co‑development.
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory is a U.S. Department of Energy national security laboratory in California, operating at scale across integrated science and engineering. Industry collaborates through an open campus that pairs unclassified labs and demo space with proximity to secure facilities, enabling work with staff scientists and access to high‑performance computing and large‑scale testbeds. Engagement options include CRADAs, Strategic Partnership Projects, and other work‑for‑others mechanisms, with flexible IP and data rights to support joint development and rapid prototyping. Research is funded primarily by the Department of Energy and the National Nuclear Security Administration, with additional support from other U.S. agencies; a technology transfer office manages IP, licensing, and startup engagements.
