Emerging research institutions (ERIs) have a significant impact on STEM workforce development and the nation's research and development capacity. While often utilizing innovative strategies that leverage limited funding, ERIs disproportionately provide communities across the United States with opportunities to engage in groundbreaking science and technology discoveries, enabling U.S. innovation and competitiveness. This multisectoral summit (supported by the NSF Award No. 2434412) will highlight innovative approaches that engage industry, state, and federal support to increase research capacity, opportunities for engagement and partnerships, and common threads in policy, program design, and practices that promote sustainable research infrastructure growth across the U.S.
