On May 27 NSF stood up Tech Accelerators — a new framework that funds domain-specialist organizations to invest in deep-tech teams in AgTech, MaterialsTech, OceanTech, and SciTech. The July 14 RFI is the field's only chance to shape topics, model, and selection before the first solicitation drops.

This is not yet a funding solicitation — it is the design window. Which is exactly why it matters.
