This grant, offered by the National Science Foundation (NSF), establishes the NSF Innovation Corps (I-Corps) to foster a national innovation ecosystem. Its primary purpose is to identify and support NSF-funded researchers with mentoring and funding, accelerating the transition of scientific discoveries into beneficial technologies, products, and processes. The I-Corps grant aims to help project teams assess the readiness of their previously or currently NSF-funded technologies for commercialization. Key outcomes include making clear go/no-go decisions on product viability, developing a transition plan for viable projects, and preparing technology demonstrations for potential partners. This initiative helps researchers attract subsequent third-party funding, ensuring scientific advancements reach society.

Description: | The National Science Foundation (NSF) seeks to develop and nurture a national innovation ecosystem that builds upon fundamental research to guide the output of scientific discoveries closer to the development of technologies, products and processes that benefit society.In order to jumpstart a national innovation ecosystem, NSF is establishing the NSF Innovation Corps (NSF I-Corps). The NSF I-Corps’ purpose is to identify NSF-funded researchers who will receive additional support – in the form of mentoring and funding – to accelerate innovation that can attract subsequent third-party funding. The purpose of the NSF I-Corps grant is to give the project team access to resources to help determine the readiness to transition technology developed by previously-funded or currently-funded NSF projects. The outcome of the I-Corps projects will be threefold: 1) a clear go/no go decision regarding viability of products and services, 2) should the decision be to move the effort forward, a transition plan to do so, and 3) a technology demonstration for potential partners. WEBINAR: A webinar will be held on the first Tuesday of every month, beginning in August 2011 to answer questions about this program. Details will be posted on the I-Corps website as they become available. |
