Sandia National Laboratories

Sandia National Laboratories is a large, multidisciplinary U.S. national laboratory and federally funded research and development center with a mission-driven culture focused on national security and technology innovation. Its principal sites in Albuquerque and Livermore combine specialized facilities, remote test locations, technical teams, and high-performance computing. Industry engagement uses CRADAs, reimbursable work, facility access, licensing, and small-business assistance; the adjacent Sandia Science & Technology Park and Livermore Valley Open Campus add further connection points. Research is funded primarily by the Department of Energy and NNSA, with additional federal sponsors. Technology partnerships support commercialization of laboratory capabilities and intellectual property.
