What is ONAMI?

ONAMI is Oregon’s first Signature Research Center. A deep collaboration among Oregon universities, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, industry, and the investment community, ONAMI accelerates research and commercialization of materials science and related device and system technologies in Oregon. Since 2004, awards to our research members have grown four-fold, the number of companies using our NanoNet facilities have grown three-fold, and companies in our gap fund portfolio have raised over $113M in leveraged funds.
