Georgia is primed to become the home of a premier innovation ecosystem that develops and translates affordable and widely available point-of-care medical technology. A collaborative including Emory University, Georgia Tech, the University of Georgia, Morehouse School of Medicine, Georgia Bio, and the Technical College System of Georgia received an inaugural $1M National Science Foundation (NSF) Engines Development Award to explore the potential for such an economic development engine.

Please join us for an informational session on how we’re building a comprehensive team of partners and a portfolio of feasibility projects for the next phase of this NSF program – an award with a $160M, ten-year ignition grant that will put Engine plans into motion.

We cannot do this alone and are actively seeking a variety of partners interested in working together to create a sustainable innovation ecosystem in Georgia. Participating in this webinar will allow you to learn how you can participate. Alternatively, if you already know you’re “in!” you can fill out this partnership interest survey.
