ORGANIZATION(S)

Directorate for Technology, Innovation and Partnerships (TIP)


The U.S. National Science Foundation’s Innovation Corps (I-Corps™) program is an
immersive, entrepreneurial training program that facilitates the transformation
of invention to impact. This immersive, seven-week experiential training program
prepares scientists and engineers to extend their focus beyond the university
laboratory — accelerating the economic and societal benefits of NSF-funded and
other basic research projects that are ready to move toward commercialization.

Widely recognized as an effective training program in the U.S. and
internationally, I-Corps addresses four urgent national needs:

 1. Training an entrepreneurial workforce
 2. Translating technologies
 3. Enabling positive economic impact
 4. Nurturing an innovation ecosystem

 


MISSION

The mission of I-Corps is to reduce the risk associated with translating
technologies from the laboratory to the marketplace. To do this, I-Corps uses
experiential education to help researchers reduce the time it takes to translate
promising ideas from the laboratory to widespread implementation.




IMPACT

More than 2,500 teams have participated in I-Corps since the program's inception
in 2012. More than half of these teams, nearly 1,400, have launched startups
which have cumulatively raised $3.16 billion in subsequent funding.

I-CORPS COHORTS

Approximately 20 to 30 teams participate together in the I-Corps curriculum as
part of a training cohort, which is hosted by an I-Corps Hub or Node. Read on
for details about the upcoming I-Corps cohorts.
