Congressional Caucus

The SMART NFP membership company of the regional, grass-roots technical community  provides news and information on collaborative S&T initiatives to the Caucus; the 8 Senators and 39 Representatives from DE, MD, NJ & PA. The Caucus and SMART have an established rapport with the key federal funding HQ agencies. The federal agencies identify federal requirements, provide keynotes for our events, appropriate collaboration on case studies and funding support for projects in accordance with federal guidelines and public laws.

SMART Advantage

SMART Advantage Benefits Everyone!The SMART regional S&T initiative is a Congressional initiative to regionalize S&T advocacy across all technology topics and disciplines within the Mid-Atlantic region. Mission: The SMART initiative is the integration of regional Science & Technology activities for issues, events & projects among the SMART Congressional Caucus (8 Senators and 41 Representatives), the Federal Executive Branch DC HQs, our International Allies, the four State governments (Executive & Legislative branches of DE, MD, NJ & PA) and the regional technical community facilitated by SMART, a Not For Profit (NFP) company. To administer this vision, the Congressional and State efforts include creating the nation's first legislated, interstate, regional S&T Authority that would replace the temporary SMART NFP membership company. The current SMART membership company was formed to execute the vision of the initiative and transition into the inter-state Authority. SMART membership is composed of academia, businesses, government labs/field agencies and organizations. While the Governors will oversee the Authority via the Board, the SMART membership will continue to execute the daily actions, focused by technology groups.
