The Alward Institute for Collaborative Science (http://www.AlwardInstitute.org ) is a new, non-profit 501c3 corporation with research and education missions to further regional science. Executive Director Linda Schick and Research Economists Dr. Stephen Cooke and David Kay form the core staff. Founder Dr. Greg Alward chairs the Board of Directors, joined by Scott Lindall and Dr. Thomas Rutherford. Dr. Philip Watson chairs the Science Advisory Council. Through our networks encompassing business, government and academia, we build collaborative and interdisciplinary partnerships to provide deep insights into the social, economic and environmental dimensions of corporate social responsibility. We offer unique competencies in global supply-chain and environmental footprint analysis, rich empirical data, as well as sophisticated modeling capabilities for regional economies and workforces. Alward Institute also has extensive experience modeling integrated ecologic-economic systems. The Alward Institute is devoted to finding new and innovative applications and analytical techniques for current and historical regional social accounting data. Because Alward Institute's research and education mission is to further regional economic analysis, the Alward Institute offers researchers and educators that partner with us the exclusive opportunity to access the Institute's complete historical (1990 - present) database of IMPLAN multi-regional social accounts for all US counties. This huge data resource is accessible only to our research collaborators and offers unprecedented opportunities to study both cross-sectional and time-series aspects of the structure, function and development of regional economies.
