Startup and Industry Ecosystem Support
IEEE Robotics and Automation Society Clearinghouse
The IEEE Robotics and Automation Society recognizes that many robotics and automation professionals and researchers may be displaced due to recent world events. Many are looking for ways to assist Ukrainian colleagues and the Ukrainian people. One of the best ways to do this is through personal contributions to international charitable relief organizations that are providing assistance to refugees of the Ukrainian conflict.
IEEE RAS asks that if you, your company or institution has created pathways for war-affected robotics professionals, IEEE RAS will collect and share these pathways with the robotics community via the clearinghouse list below.

Research Preservation
IEEE-hosted easily-accessible data platform that enables users to store, search, access and manage data.
TechRxiv by IEEE
Tech Archive is an open, moderated preprint server for unpublished research in the areas of engineering, computer science, and related technology that is hosted by IEEE. Authors can quickly upload or disseminate a preprint (draft) of their work to a wide audience and gain community feedback on a timestamped draft version of their research.
Developed as a tool for universal academic mobility to curate and store critical academic documentation should the need arise to quickly flee research facilities
