Chancellor's Innovation Fund - preproposals due November 4th
Dear Colleagues,
The Office of Technology Transfer is now accepting pre-proposal submissions for the next funding cycle of the Chancellor?s Innovation Fund. Established by Chancellor Randy Woodson, this fund serves as a resource to assist NCSU innovators with reduction to practice or technology/product development needed to strengthen the commercial potential of intellectual property disclosed to OTT.
CIF awards of up to $75,000 are designed to support short-term (one year or less) commercially-focused research projects. Proposed CIF projects ideally incorporate study endpoints designed to directly address license-enabling milestones required by potential licensees. Anticipated outcomes include new licensing opportunities or the launch of a new university startup company.
The submission deadline for preproposals is November 4th. Please note that all preproposal submissions must be associated with an invention disclosure on file with OTT. For additional details related to eligibility, proposal process, criteria, and submission, please visit our CIF homepage.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Please forward this solicitation as we would like a wide range of applicants from across NCSU's vibrant innovation landscape.
Sincerely,
Kelly
