Long Island Forum For Technology

The Long Island Forum for Technology (LIFT) is a private not-for-profit membership organization supporting economic development by providing direct technical and strategic services to technology-based firms. LIFT's consulting engineers and other professional staff improve the performance of emerging firms, selected industrial sectors, inventors, manufacturers and high tech firms helping them to increase efficiency, integrate new technology, design and revise operating procedures, create marketing plans and establish new markets (including e-commerce), build prototypes, and make grant applications. LIFT also finds value for its industrial client base by promoting projects with other agencies such as Empire State Development, CAT centers, Brookhaven National Labs, Long Island Development Corporation, Small Business Development Centers and the SPIR program at SUNY Stony Brook. LIFT supports the defense and aerospace, medical device and healthcare, homeland security, energy, information technology and manufacturing clusters of the Long Island economy. LIFT serves Nassau and Suffolk Counties of New York State.
