UIDP Webinar: NSF’s Partnership for Innovation Funding Program

December 1, 2017 @ 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm EST

Learn about exciting changes to NSF’s Partnerships for Innovation program.

The Partnerships for Innovation (PFI) program within the Division of Industrial Innovation and Partnerships (IIP) at the National Science Foundation (NSF) offers researchers the opportunity to transform new knowledge into societal benefits through translational research and technology development efforts. This webinar will give an overview of a new PFI opportunity for funding. More information about this funding opportunity can be found at www.nsf.gov/pubs/2018/nsf18511/nsf18511.htm.

A recording of the webinar is now available at https://uidp.org/webinar/nsf-pfi/.
