- This $285,504 EAGER award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (CFDA 47.084) program supports a two-year research project to measure the impact of university innovation facilities on real estate markets and R&D space supply and demand across the top 100 U.S. metropolitan areas. The project aims to collect and analyze data on four key outcome variables: R&D space demand, R&D space supply, business establishment clustering, and...
This Cooperative Agreement award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.084 - NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships) provides $3,921,993 over 3 years to US Ignite, Inc., a non-profit organization, to deliver technical assistance and support to up to 200 regional applicants that pursued but did not receive federal innovation-focused economic development grants. The project aims to sustain the momentum generated by these programs, help regions develop alternative sustainability approaches, and enhance regional innovation ecosystems. The assistance includes online resources, stakeholder collaboration, funding/investment access, and translating emerging technology research into regional economic advantages. This builds on the economic development and technology acceleration impacts of prior federal place-based innovation ecosystem programs like the NSF Regional Innovation Engines. The tiered support model is designed to deliver technical assistance and guidance to regions, even without them receiving a large implementation grant award.
