Tuesday, 30 January 2024: 7:00 AM-8:00 AM
337 (The Baltimore Convention Center)
Host: Agency Updates
Speaker:

Given the need for more technological innovation in the geosciences to help achieve Net Zero and move to the new Green Economy and the growing challenges of climate and associated environmental change, increasing numbers of natural disasters, and the need to increase the resilience of communities impacted by these, the National Science Foundation is entering a new phase where use-inspired, translational, and transdisciplinary research is moving to the fore. To further this agenda, NSF and GEO have and are initiating new funding opportunities to encourage geoscientists to focus on research that quickly delivers results and impacts to society and the economy. These include programs that support collaboration with industry, local communities, and those in the medical/public health professions. Programs also include opportunities that help educate and support geo-entrepreneurs with a spectrum of programs that fund activities in customer discovery, prototyping, and commercialization. Come hear what’s new at NSF in these arenas, all of which move your ideas and research to greater impact and visibility of what you are doing.
