SUMMARY AS PASSED SENATE: (all summaries)

Investment in research and technology. Makes changes to the Commonwealth Research Commercialization Fund (CRCF), including adding a federal research facility located in the Commonwealth to the list of entities eligible to apply for a grant, and clarifies that the length of time that a business has been incorporated does not affect an entity's eligibility for an award. The bill provides for the Innovation and Entrepreneurship Investment Authority (IEIA) to consult with the Secretary of Technology on the guidelines developed for the administration of the CRCF. The bill also transfers the authority to appoint the five citizen members of the Research and Technology Investment Advisory Committee from the IEIA to the Governor and the General Assembly.
