2009 Partners

Partners of the World Science Festival include prominent New York universities, preeminent cultural institutions and renowned science institutions. Along with these organizations, the WSF counts as partners its corporate sponsors, foundations, individual donors, and government agencies. These partnerships are what enables the World Science Festival to fulfill its mission: to cultivate and sustain a general public informed by the content of science, inspired by its wonder, convinced of its value, and prepared to engage with its implications for the future.

The World Science Festival is deeply grateful for the support and participation of its program partners.
