Technology Investments to Spur Economic Growth*Technology Highlights in the 2011 Budget
*Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP)
February 1, 2010
Promote the Commercialization of promising technologies: The Budget proposes $12 million in the National Science Foundation (NSF) for a new Innovation Ecosystem in which universities partner with other institutions to increase the impact of the most promising innovations through commercialization, industry alliances, and start-up formation.
Has resulted in a new solicitation entitled Accelerating Innovation Research (NSF 10-608)
Great Opportunity for IUCRCs!!

What does an I/UCRC offer?
• Industry driven R&D projects • Leveraging relatively small investment to reap far
greater return via consortium-style research center• Interaction with other key players in industry, peers
and customers• Access to intellectual property (patents in use)• Access to pre-publication technical papers• Access to world class facilities and researchers• Access to students (students hired)• Transfer of research results to serve industry
(impact assessment)
