NCIIA Experience Deborah Hofer 08 May 2006 10:37 EST

Good Monday morning.

Have any of you worked with the National Collegiate Inventors &
Innovators Alliance (NCIIA)?

I am dealing with a rather strange situation in that a private entity
(I believe non-profit but do not know for sure) is developing an
invention and submitted a grant proposal to NCIIA under the auspices of
our institution, i.e., the entity listed me as administrative contact
and themselves as the applicant. However, they neglected to provide a
proposal, budget, etc. to us for review.

Add to that, this entity paid membership fees to NCIIA on our behalf
because membership is required in order to apply for funding.

Well-intentioned over-enthusiasm or fishy?
