This project, a series of convenings among emerging research universities and community partners in the Central region of the Commonwealth of Virginia, will develop, organize, and support efforts to build a regional research ecosystem. This regional collaborative effort will strengthen human capital assets and technology transfer and public-private research partnerships by working across the region to increase access to researchers, mentors, research administrators, and tech transfer specialists. The convenings will also assist in the development and sharing of common training and professional development opportunities. Previous collaborative efforts suggest that the following goals will have maximum impact on the research enterprise in the Central region of the Commonwealth of Virginia: 1) Increase knowledge of technology transfer and intellectual property protection; given the diversity of regional universities and partners, this also creates opportunities to explore the potential of technology transfer opportunities for social sciences and humanities research and how translation of research serves the non-profit and for-profit business sectors. 2) Building human capital, which includes the research administrative workforce, research leadership, and student research training and leadership. 3) Build public-private and community partnerships for research and translation; working to coordinate networks, projects, and resources. Primary participants in the project are Virginia State University, Norfolk State University, Longwood University, Virginia Commonwealth University, and Activation Capital. The national professional organization, Teaching Institute for Excellence in STEM (TIES), is also a collaborator.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目是弗吉尼亚联邦中部地区新兴研究型大学和社区合作伙伴之间的一系列会议，将开发、组织和支持建立区域研究生态系统的努力。这项区域合作努力将通过在整个地区开展工作，增加接触研究人员、导师、研究管理人员和技术转让专家的机会，加强人力资本资产和技术转让以及公私研究伙伴关系。这些会议还将有助于开发和共享共同培训和专业发展机会。先前的合作努力表明，以下目标将对弗吉尼亚联邦中部地区的研究企业产生最大的影响： 1）增加技术转让和知识产权保护的知识；鉴于区域大学和合作伙伴的多样性，这也为探索社会科学和人文研究技术转让机会的潜力以及研究成果如何服务于非营利和营利商业部门创造了机会。 2）建设人力资本，包括研究管理人员、研究领导力以及学生研究培训和领导力。 3) 建立研究和翻译的公私和社区伙伴关系；致力于协调网络、项目和资源。该项目的主要参与者包括弗吉尼亚州立大学、诺福克州立大学、朗伍德大学、弗吉尼亚联邦大学和 Activation Capital。国家专业组织 STEM 卓越教学学院 (TIES) 也是合作者。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
