The Office of Research, Innovation, and Economic Development (ORIED) is extremely pleased to announce the teams who were selected as winners of GRIP awards.

The response was overwhelming: ORIED received 59 pre-proposals that spanned all 10 NC State colleges, included more than 300 NC State faculty, and involved talented collaborators at RTI, Duke, and UNC-Chapel Hill.
