13. CABA Teaming Agreements
CABA member organizations can work together to ‘beta test’ a new problem, they would like to solve, in a pilot project.
This differs from other CABA market research projects (Landmark or Multi-Client Boutique) because intellectual property and/or patents may be involved. 
The CABA Teaming Agreement program was successfully done by CABA in the past (i.e., Laundry Time) and there has been interest by CABA members to start new Teaming Agreements.
CABA is actively seeking organizations that
would be interested in participating in a pilot
project to solve a particular problem they
are facing.
Contact Greg Walker, CABA Research
Director, for more
