This project establishes an I-Corps Site at Brandeis University, managed by the Office of Technology Licensing and housed at the Hassenfeld Family Innovation Center (HFIC). 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. The Site at Brandeis builds on resources that are central to the mission of HFIC, including: training, mentoring, and external engagement with industry.This project utilizes a modest amount of funding ($ 237,050 over five years) to establish an I-Corps Site that will serve at least 15 commercialization teams each year. All of the elements for a successful proposal and project are in place. The institution has a track record for commercialization. They have interacted with the regional I-Corps Node and understand the I-Corps training process. There is an established pipeline of teams and there is a specific plan for recruiting underrepresented teams and for mentoring those teams through the commercialization processes.This projects is likely to not only influence the culture of this institution but also impact the commercialization ecosystem in their geographical region.

该项目在布兰迪斯大学建立了一个I-Corps网站，由技术许可办公室管理，并设在哈森菲尔德家庭创新中心（HFIC）。NSF Innovation Corps（I-Corps）网站是由NSF资助的实体，在大学中建立，其目的是培养和支持多个本地团队将其技术概念转化为市场。网站提供基础设施，建议，资源，网络机会，培训和适度的资金，使团体能够将他们的工作转移到市场或成为I-Corps团队申请人。Brandeis的网站建立在对HFIC的使命至关重要的资源之上，包括：培训、指导和与行业的外部接触。该项目利用少量资金（五年内237，050美元）建立一个每年至少为15个商业化团队提供服务的I-Corps网站。一个成功的提案和项目的所有要素都已到位。该机构在商业化方面拥有良好的记录。他们与区域I-Corps节点进行了互动，并了解I-Corps的培训过程。有一个既定的团队管道，并有一个具体的计划，招募代表性不足的团队，并通过商业化过程中指导这些团队。这些项目不仅可能影响该机构的文化，而且可能影响其地理区域的商业化生态系统。
