Discovery Park will host a workshop on Wednesday (April 3) for Purdue faculty and staff to help shape responses to the National Science Foundation’s Convergence Accelerator Pilot initiative. This workshop is in response to NSF’s recent “Dear Colleague Letter” and is designed to help interested parties craft their Research Concept Outlines for submittal.

Miriam Quintal of Lewis-Burke and Associates in Washington, D.C., will be present via WebEx to provide guidance and answer questions regarding NSF priorities for this initiative. Interested parties may attend this session from noon to 1 p.m. in the Burton D. Morgan Center for Entrepreneurship, Room 121.

The deadline for submission of outlines is April 15, and full proposals are due on June 3. Additional details of the NSF Convergence Accelerator Pilot may be found here.

Seating is limited. RSVP to reserve a spot and receive call-in information via Qualtrics here.
