DFOP0017093 NOFO Package.zip

This is a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) package for solicitation DFOP0017093, titled "Women in CHIPS Initiative," issued by the Department of State's Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation (ISN). The funding will be provided through a cooperative agreement under the Export Control and Related Border Security (EXBS) Program (CFDA 19.901).

The initiative aims to advance women's participation in the semiconductor industry through three main components: mentorship, technical training/workshops, and a study tour. The program builds upon the existing Women in Strategic Trade Initiative (WiST) and focuses on increasing female representation in both public and private semiconductor sectors, particularly in leadership positions, STEM fields, and other key functional areas.
