Welcome Message
Welcome to the TRB AJE35 Research Innovation Implementation Management (RIIM) Committee website.
RIIM explores research and innovation processes and life cycles, from formulating needs through conduct of research and development efforts to technology transfer and implementation activities. We welcome you to attend our meetings and get involved with our three Subcommittees: Coordination, Collaboration and Outreach; Emerging Topics; and Innovation Lifecycles. We also have Communications, Research Needs, and Paper Review Task Groups.
Please look at the web pages and come to our meetings to learn what we are doing. We look forward to including you in our activities.

In a message sent November 3, the Council cited the AJE35 for "Its successful merger of two committees through a robust, sustained, and successful effort over the last two years."
