Conference: NSF Industry Partnership Summit: A Workshop Proposal

CHIPS和科学法案于2022年8月9日签署成为法律，为加速关键技术领域的进步，将科学和技术转化为社会重大挑战的解决方案，以及促进与私营部门的伙伴关系以实现这一进步带来了新的机遇。这种对未来的愿景鼓励像NSF这样的联邦机构采取大胆的步骤，并尝试新的方法，为使用启发和转化研究创建一个伙伴关系和合作的生态系统。本次研讨会将召集一组战略性的企业科技领导人以及NSF领导代表，以确定有效的战略以及非传统的方法，以加强下一代公私合作伙伴关系模式。通过共同投资研究，公司和NSF等联邦机构可以补充传统的研发投资，利用和扩大可用资金来实现研究目标，扩大与新研究合作伙伴的合作，并填补劳动力管道。该研讨会将于2023年春季在华盛顿地区举行，随后将于2023年6月举行一次虚拟活动，以广泛传播研究结果。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来支持。

The CHIPS and Science Act, signed into law on August 9, 2022, envisions new opportunities in accelerating progress in key technology areas, translating science and technology into solutions to society’s major challenges, and fostering partnerships with the private sector to enable this progress. This vision for the future encourages federal agencies such as NSF to take bold steps and experiment with new approaches for creating an ecosystem of partnerships and collaborations for use-inspired and translational research. This workshop will convene a strategic set of corporate science and technology leaders, as well as NSF leadership representatives, to identify effective strategies as well as nontraditional approaches to enhance the next generation of public-private partnership models. Through co-investing in research, companies and federal agencies such as NSF can complement traditional R&D investments, leverage and expand available funding to achieve research goals, broaden engagement with new research partners, and fill the workforce pipeline. The workshop will take place in Spring 2023 in the Washington, DC, region and will be followed by a virtual event in June 2023 to broadly disseminate findings.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.
