The CO-WY Engine is receiving significant funding from the National Science Foundation aimed at improving the resilience of communities in our two-state region. The Engine will support the development of unique environmental data and measurements in our region through research and development and translation of technologies using grant programs and other means.
There are two types of grants: Use-Inspired R&D grants and Translation grants.
Use-Inspired R&D Grants: These grants aim to foster research and development of innovative data, technology, or practice solutions for advancing climate technologies and community resiliency.
Eligible universities include:
• Colorado State University
• University of Wyoming University of Colorado (Boulder, Denver)
• University of Northern Colorado
• Colorado School of Mines
• Metro State University
Translation Grants: These grants aim to accelerate the commercialization of innovations into tangible products, services, or solutions that address climate resiliency. Proposals should demonstrate a solid product-market fit, collaboration with industry partners, and a roadmap for securing additional translational funding.
