The first question that comes to mind is what makes this entity think they can use the university's name? What is the tie between the university and the entity - if there is one?

Subject: [RESADM-L] NCIIA Experience
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?
