“There are certainly some specific proprietary aspects involved and nobody will naively share data without something in return, but the common goal for everybody is to design safe and robust platforms in a cost-effective way. MARIN has always been active in the initiation of new Joint Industry Projects with the simple logic that it brings more research for the money to the participants.”
