Public sector partner TURI is a Massachusetts state agency focused on reducing toxic substances, presenting opportunities to offer compliance, training, and grant-related services to government programs and state-funded initiatives.

Grants and funding With experience awarding community grants and handling research funding, there is potential to pitch expanded grant programs, sponsored research partnerships, and consulting around safer alternatives to toxic substances.

TCE substitution TURI’s involvement in reducing trichloroethylene use in vapor degreasing presents a selling point for eco-friendly solvent replacements, process optimization, and related equipment or chemical supplier partnerships.

Collaborative expansion Recent and ongoing collaborations with EPA, state agencies, and external partners indicate readiness for new pilots and multi-agency projects, ideal for cross-sell of training, outreach, and technical services.

Scale and reach As a small to mid-size agency within environmental services with a sizable operating budget, there is demand for scalable solutions, cloud-based training, data reporting, and stakeholder engagement platforms to support program impact.
