The broader impact/commercial potential of this Partnerships for Innovation (Conference) project will be on the engagement of about 200 participants from local community colleges and underrepresented backgrounds to learn about concepts, processes and skills for business, innovation, and entrepreneurship as well as inclusive practices, and on creating a template for a scalable platform to foster inclusion and innovation and inspire future entrepreneurs and innovators. The results of the project will be disseminated through presentations and conference and journal publications.The proposed project will develop a roadmap for inclusive technology development and commercialization. Participants will build knowledge in invention, innovation, technology transfer and entrepreneurship and will learn these skills in the spirit of inclusive innovation practices. We envision this workshop as the first in a series that will mitigate barriers to participation, enable a more inclusive innovation ecosystem and serve as a platform in the preparation and development of future entrepreneurs from diverse groups. The project team is uniquely qualified to offer activities geared towards equitable access and diversification of participation in innovation and entrepreneurship. The evaluation plan will measure outcomes and provide data related to the participants and activities.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这种创新伙伴关系的更广泛的影响/商业潜力（会议）项目将吸引来自当地社区学院和代表性不足背景的约200名参与者，以了解商业，创新和创业以及包容性做法的概念，流程和技能，以及创建一个可扩展平台的模板，以促进包容性和创新，并激励未来的企业家和创新者。该项目的成果将通过演讲、会议和期刊出版物传播，拟议的项目将为包容性技术开发和商业化制定路线图。参与者将积累发明、创新、技术转让和创业方面的知识，并将本着包容性创新做法的精神学习这些技能。我们设想这次研讨会是一系列研讨会中的第一次，将减少参与障碍，实现更具包容性的创新生态系统，并作为来自不同群体的未来企业家的准备和发展平台。该项目小组具有独特的资格，能够提供旨在实现公平获得和多样化参与创新和创业的活动。评估计划将衡量成果，并提供与参与者和活动相关的数据。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估。
