This project, from Louisiana State University (LSU), creates an Innovation Corps Site (I-Corps Site)NSF Innovation Corps (I-Corps) Sites are NSF-funded entities established at universities whose purpose is to nurture and support multiple, local teams to transition their technology concepts into the marketplace. Sites provide infrastructure, advice, resources, networking opportunities, training and modest funding to enable groups to transition their work into the marketplace or into becoming I-Corps Team applicants. I-Corps Sites also strengthen innovation locally and regionally and contribute to the National Innovation Network of mentors, researchers, entrepreneurs and investors.Louisiana State University's (LSU) I-Corps Site nurtures and supports multiple, local teams of faculty, students, and the LSU community that are transitioning their ideas, devices, processes or other intellectual activities into the marketplace. The LSU Emerging Technology Preparation (LA EMTEC Prep) program provides training, education, and mentorship to LSU faculty, students, and the community through a six to eight week training program focused on Intellectual Property, the Business Model Canvas, Basics of Licensing and Technology Transfer, Small Business Innovation Research Grants, I-Corps Teams, and other funding mechanisms, Customer Discover and Hypothesis Validation, and Early Stage funding for Research Intensive Companies. Projects can originate from student work, funded or unfunded research at LSU, institutional, or industrial projects. The LA EMTEC Prep program makes LSU technology more competitive in funding programs, as well as increasing the number of new start-up businesses, licensing agreements, and third-party investor reviews stemming from LSU based innovations. The LA EMTEC Prep program improves commercialization outcomes for LSU technologies by encouraging researchers (including Post-Doctoral scholar, graduate student, undergraduate, or professional staff) to tackle marketability questions early in their research process and pivot their research accordingly, by training LSU researchers and students on commercialization principles, and by better preparing all parties at LSU to succeed in I-Corps Teams and other intensive assessment programs. Over time, LSU's participation in I-Corps Sites will (1) stimulate the translation of fundamental university-based research into commercially viable technologies, (2) encourage faculty, students, and community-based industry personnel to collaborate around early stage university technologies, and (3) enhance the understanding of faculty, students, and community-based industry partners through hands-on training and experiential learning in innovation and entrepreneurship.

该项目来自路易斯安那州立大学（LSU），创建了一个创新的军团站点（I-CORPS网站）NSF创新军（I-Corps）站点是NSF资助的实体，该实体是在大学建立的，其目的是培养和支持多个本地团队将其技术概念转移到市场上。网站提供基础架构，建议，资源，网络机会，培训和适度的资金，以使团体能够将其工作转变为市场或成为I-Corps团队申请人。 I-Corps网站还在本地和地区加强创新，并为国家指导者，研究人员，企业家和投资者的创新网络做出了贡献。LouisianaState University's（LSU）I-Corps网站培养并支持多个当地的教职员工，学生和LSU社区，这些社区正在构想他们的思想，设备，设备或其他方面的活动，其他构想或其他构思或其他构想。 LSU新兴技术准备（LA EMTEC PREP）计划通过六到八周的培训计划为LSU教师，学生和社区提供培训，教育和指导，这些培训计划着重于知识产权，商业模型帆布，许可和技术转移的基础知识，小型企业创新研究GRANTS，I-CORPS团队，I-Corps团队，I-Corps和其他筹集效果的效果和其他筹集性的效果和早期的努力，并进行了努力，并进行了努力，并进行了努力，并进行了努力，并进行了努力，并进行了努力，并进行了努力，并进行了努力，并进行了努力。项目可以源自LSU，机构或工业项目的学生工作，资助或无资金的研究。 LA EMTEC PREP计划使LSU技术在资金计划中更具竞争力，并增加了新的创业业务，许可协议和第三方投资者评论的数量。 LA EMTEC PREP计划通过鼓励研究人员（包括博士后学者，研究生，本科生或专业员工）来改善LSU技术的商业化结果，以在其研究过程的早期解决可销售性问题，并通过培训LSU研究人员和学生在商业化计划上以及在LSU和其他派别中进行培训和其他派别，并在LSU和其他方面进行培训。随着时间的流逝，LSU的参与I-Corps网站将（1）刺激基于大学的基本研究对商业可行技术的翻译，（2）鼓励教职员工，学生和社区行业人员在早期阶段的大学技术围绕早期阶段的大学技术进行协作，（3）通过实用的培训和实验培训，增强了对教师，学生和社区行业的理解和实验性学习的理解。
