Think your grant application w ould be strengthened with an industry partner? As a greater number of gran ting programs require support from industrial partners and not-for-profit entities (NFPs) researchers may find themselves struggling to secure a sup porting organization and qualify their applications in time for many of th e granting competitions. Securing a letter of support\, in-kind contributi ons\, and/or funding from industry or NFPs is not a trivial task. It requi res strategy\, networking\, time\, and luck.\nThis information session wil l feature presentations from 3 individuals in Âé¶ąÉç's Office of the VP Re search.
