Dear Colleagues,
The Office of Technology Commercialization and New Ventures is now accepting pre-proposal submiss ions for the next funding cycle of the Chancellor’s Innovation Fund (CIF).
CIF awards of up to $75,000 are designed to support short-term (one year or less) commercially-focused research projects. Proposed CIF projects ideally incorporate study endpoints designed to directly address license-enabling milestones required by potential licensees. Anticipated outcomes include new licensing opportunities or the launch of a new university startup company.
The submission deadline for pre-proposals is November 15th. Please note that all pre-proposal submissions must be associated with an intellectual property disclosure on file with the OTCNV. For additional details related to eligibility, proposal process, criteria, and submission, please visit our CIF homepage.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Please forward this solicitation as we would like a wide range of applicants from across NC State's vibrant innovation landscape.
Sincerely,
Kelly
