December 16 Webinar on Government Research Funding
As federal and state investments in research and development grow, universities have sought to bolster the funding they receive from these sources.
Increasingly, companies are looking to exploit these opportunities and are turning to universities as logical partners in pursuit of funding. In order to increase the awareness of these programs, the University-Industry Demonstration Partnership (UIDP) and National Council of Entrepreneurial Tech Transfer (NCET2) will hold a series of regularly scheduled webinars that highlight specific agencies and their programs that support university-industry collaborations.
These webinars will commence on December 16, 2009 at 4 PM eastern time and continue on the third Wednesday of each month. The first webinar will focus on the National Science Foundation (NSF). The speaker will be Dr. Kesh Narayanan, Director, Divison of Industrial Innovation & Partnerships at NSF.
