SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title of Collection: National Science
Foundation (NSF) Innovation Corps (ICorpsTM) Program Pre-submission
Executive Summary Form.
OMB Control No.: 3145–NEW.
Abstract: The NSF Innovation Corps
(I-Corps) Teams Program PreSubmission Executive Summary is an
important component of the NSF ICorps Teams pre-submission process
and conveys information needed to

applying team to the cognizant I-Corps
Team’s PD outlining solicitationspecific 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 twopage (maximum) document and was
often in varying formats or missing
some parts of the required ES elements.
The NSF I-Corps Teams Executive
