The NSF Engines program will provide up to $160 million to each Regional Engine to catalyze and foster innovation ecosystems which may include the public workforce system and other workforce development stakeholders. NSF Engines will advance critical technologies, address pressing national and societal challenges, and foster regional talent.

What does this mean for the workforce system? On Tuesday, April 15, 2024, NSF released a solicitation for a second round of NSF Engines funding<https://new.nsf.gov/funding/opportunities/nsf-regional-innovation-engines-nsf-engines-0/nsf24-565/solicitation>. Webinar attendees will learn about the workforce system’s role in partnering with lead applicants for Regional Innovation Engine grants as well as how to identify, engage, and collaborate with current engine grantees.

Don’t forget to register<•%09Whole%20of%20Government%20Awardee%20Briefing%20on%20NSF%20Engines%20Program>!
