Drive Technology Translation

Our academic, industry and public-sector partners are leaders in making discoveries and pioneering new technologies. Our goal is to ensure that these innovations translate into technologies and services for societal and economic benefit.

To enhance technology translation, we will connect researchers with innovation training and opportunities, including certificate programs, mentorship networks, trainings, seed funding, pitch competitions, venture capital partnerships, alumni investment funds, and incubator and accelerator space.

We’ll partner with programs such as the NSF Innovation Corps (I-Corps) Northeast Hub launched at Princeton University in January 2022 to accelerate the economic impact of federally funded research while building skills and opportunities among researchers from all backgrounds, including those historically underrepresented in entrepreneurship.

In addition, our partners VentureWell, Material Impact, HAX, and Princeton Innovation Center Biolabs will support innovation and entrepreneurship within higher education and the broader science and technology ecosystem.
