UWDB Affiliates Program

The affiliates program strengthens collaborations between the UW Database Group and industrial partners, and helps support our ongoing research. Affiliates get exclusive opportunities to interact with the UWDB researchers.

We thank our current affiliates:

Member Benefits

  • Invitation to an annual [Northwest Database Day]({{ site.baseurl }}/events/events.html#northwest-database-society-annual-meeting), which will bring together universities and companies from the greater Pacific Northwest. While this event will include both UWDB affiliates and non-affiliates, affiliates will be able to bring larger teams.
  • Invitation to an annual, member-only [UWDB Affiliates Workshop]({{ site.baseurl }}/events/events.html#uwdb-affiliates-annual-workshop), which will bring other UWDB affiliate members, the UW Database group, other Allen School faculty, and students together to discuss targeted research ideas in the field of data management. Each workshop will be dedicated to a common topic of interest within data management.
