Trusted Capabilities and Readiness Development Foundation

What We Do

  • Build and scale the Emerging Research Institutions Shared Services Center (ERISSC), connecting Emerging Research Institutions (ERIs) to shared services across pre-award, post-award, and compliance support
  • Forge strategic partnerships with R1 universities, federal agencies, industry, and small businesses that expand opportunity for ERIs
  • Advance workforce readiness by connecting ERI students and faculty to research, fellowships, and career pathways

The fastest way to increase ERI competitiveness and sustainability is by forming partnerships. Through partnerships, institutions build and strengthen lasting capacity.
