This project aims to modernize the research translation model at Binghamton University by shifting from traditional technology transfer and licensing to use-inspired and industry-informed R&D path to commercialization. The project will address key cultural and resource gaps, including limited research community engagement, low awareness and implementation of use-inspired R&D, lack of understanding of the commercialization process, insufficient resources for technology validation and translation, and underrepresentation of women and minorities in the innovation ecosystem. Binghamton EXCEED will grow the organizational buy-in and capacity to affect broad institutional change, validating and deploying at scale an updated model of research translation rooted in fostering use-inspired R&D.The project will pursue stage-specific capacity-building activities to address existing challenges and to 'get', 'keep' and 'grow' the university’s base of research innovators, ground-breaking inventions, research translation outputs, and new ventures. Providing a high-touch and comprehensive support framework across the technology translation pathway, EXCEED will activate the campus research community through one-on-one mentoring as well as events, seminars, and curricular offerings (GET), launch pre-accelerator training and internship programs and accelerate industry outreach to foster use-inspired R&D (KEEP), and provide prototyping and validation funding, as well as startup launch support (GROW).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.

该项目旨在通过从传统的技术转让和许可转变为使用启发和行业知情的研发路径，实现宾厄姆顿大学研究翻译模式的现代化。该项目将解决关键的文化和资源差距，包括研究界参与有限，对使用启发式研发的认识和实施程度低，对商业化过程缺乏了解，技术验证和翻译资源不足，以及妇女和少数群体在创新生态系统中的代表性不足。宾厄姆顿EXCEED将增加组织的购买和能力，以影响广泛的制度变革，验证和大规模部署一个最新的研究翻译模式，植根于促进使用启发的研发&。该项目将追求特定阶段的能力建设活动，以解决现有的挑战，并“获得”，“保持”和“增长”大学的研究创新者，突破性的发明，研究翻译输出，新的冒险。EXCEED将通过一对一的指导以及活动，研讨会和课程（GET）激活校园研究社区，推出加速器前培训和实习计划，并加速行业推广以促进使用启发式&研发（KEEP），并提供原型设计和验证资金。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并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，被认为值得支持。
