The NSF’s Role in I/UCRCs
Facilitate a Center environment in which long-term
relationships between industry and academia can
thrive.
• Cooperative Agreement & Operational Framework
• Franchise of centers for collaboration
• Best practices based on decades of evaluation
• Funding Opportunities available to I/UCRCs
WHERE DISCOVERIES BEGIN

The I/UCRC Model
• IUCRC model moves beyond one-on-one contracts &
decision making
Shared portfolio
One-on-one
contracts
Disadvantages of
Affiliates Model:
- sub-critical mass projects
- no sense of community
- value << sum of projects
Industrial
Affiliates:
-one-on-one
decisionmaking
- collective
ownership
IUCRC:
- collective decisionmaking
- collective ownership
Advantages of the
IUCRC Model:
- Conversation validates
shared community needs
- Portfolio shaped, direction
aligned with member needs
- Value across the portfolio
Value >> sum of projects
Much more than collective ownership: Collective Value

Accelerating Innovation Research
(NSF 10-608)
Option 2 Goals
•
The Research Alliance [Option 2] competition - a collaborative effort
between an NSF-funded innovation research alliance (including consortia
such as ERC, I/UCRC, PFI, STC, NSEC, MRSEC grantees) and at least one
partner entity to form a synergistic relationship that will accelerate the
innovation of a product, a process or system.
•
The ideal partnership would be one that ultimately leverages the
collaborative relationship developed under the grant to strengthen the
innovation ecosystem. (how the partnership will enable innovation that
neither party could do as well or rapidly alone)
•
The collaboration would link multiple entities such that research results are
more rapidly moved into marketable products through the creation of
new start-up businesses or partnerships with existing businesses.
OUTCOME of 2010 Pilot:
• Panels Held and Awards Announced: 7 Awards Made
– 4 I/UCRCs (one center recently formed from graduated STC)
– 3 PFI Awardees

NSF Innovation-Corps
Content
• A public-private partnership connecting NSF-funded scientific research
with the technological, entrepreneurial and business communities to
help create a stronger national ecosystem for innovation that couples
scientific discovery with technology development and societal needs.
• The NSF I-Corps program will identify NSF-funded researchers to receive
additional support - in the form of mentoring and funding - to accelerate
the translation of knowledge derived from fundamental research into
emerging products and services that can attract subsequent third-party
funding.
• I-Corps team: Entrepreneurial lead, I-Corps mentor, Principal Investigator
•
Desired Outcomes:
1) a clear go/no go decision regarding commercial viability of the effort;
2) should the decision be to move the technology forward to market, a
transition plan to do so; and
3) a technology demonstration for potential partners.
