This Executive Summary (ES) is to be submitted by the applying team to the cognizant I-Corps Team’s PD outlining solicitation-specific aspects of the project (such as proposed team members, technology, commercial application and NSF lineage). In the past, this ES was submitted via email as an attached two-page (maximum) document and was often in varying formats or missing some parts of the required ES elements. The NSF I-Corps Teams Executive Summary Form captures the same requested information, as outlined in NSF I-Corps Teams Program solicitation, but all within one secure, web-based form. In specific, the form collects submitting team member information (composition, roles and a brief description of each member’s qualifications), Principal Investigator (PI) information (and a brief description of their connection to the team), NSF lineage (relevant current or previous NSF awards), a brief description of the core technology, a brief description of the potential commercial application, and a brief description of the current commercialization plan for the proposed technology. If the proposed ICorps Team is applying based on participation in a local or regional NSF I-Corps Site or Node training session, the form will provide fields for the applying team to complete regarding the associated I-Corps Site or Node senior member’s contact information (as a reference) and location of the associated Site or Node. Respondents: Investigators who submit proposals to NSF’s I-Corps Teams Program. Estimated Number of Annual Respondents: 400. Burden on the Public: 2 hour (per response) for an annual total of 800 hours. Dated: February 28, 2019. Suzanne H. Plimpton, Reports Clearance Officer, National Science Foundation.
