The New Jersey PFAS Partnership Innovation Consortium (NJ PFAS-PIC) will establish a collaborative strategic stakeholders partnership based ecosystem to develop innovative technology solutions with advance translation, scaling and community validation to address critical needs in PFAS detection, remediation, decontamination and management, and develop novel alternative materials to be used in consumable products for reducing and managing PFAS contamination for societal benefits and economic impact. The collaborative consortium partners will include technology researchers, experts, leaders and policymakers from academic, industry, government, corporate, utilities and community sectors. The NJ PFAS-PIC membership is based on a tiered annual membership fee structure at the organizational level to provide membership privileges, access to resources and voting rights to the representatives of participating member partner organizations.

The core objective of the NJ PFAS-PIC is to develop the university-industry-government-community ecosystem to focus on specific innovation and technology translation to market and communities for application validation, scaling, manufacturing, and adoption by the communities for greater societal and economic benefits. It will also help support and enhance the data collection, policies development and regulatory compliance working with academic, industry, community and government stakeholders and initiatives. The NJ PFAS-PIC operational plans will be developed and approved by its Board of Directors and implemented through operational committees and the network of innovators, experts, business leaders and policymakers from the member organizations in the ecosystem .
