SUMMARY
This discussion centers on the challenges of securing funding from universities for a project focused on fuel cells. Pierre seeks funding for building two prototypes, but responses indicate that without a PhD, ISO/GLP certification, and adequate documentation, the likelihood of obtaining university funding is extremely low. Participants suggest that government funding may be a more viable option, although specific contacts for government funding are not provided.
