In the new, global knowledge economy of the 21st century, continued prosperity depends on innovation - and innovation depends upon the investments we make in the talents of our citizens.
These results-driven investment grants, with high commercialization potential, have attracted & leveraged an additional $109 million in outside private capital, seeded the development of 11 new companies and fostered science and math skills in over 54,000 students statewide.
