Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University are engaged in a rare collaboration

Students from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University are engaged in a rare collaboration — with $200,000 at stake.
Five student teams from across the country, each promoting a prospective business venture, have made the finals of MIT’s Clean Energy Entrepreneurship Prize competition, a student-run program that helps develop and fund clean technology initiatives. One team, which calls itself Oscomp Systems, includes three students from schools that are usually rivals: one member is from Harvard; two from MIT. The team created a compression technology that reduces the cost of natural gas production.
