Entrepreneurship (OIE), is a Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) 
committee that provides advice directly to the Secretary of Commerce. 
NACIE's advice focuses on transformational policies and programs that 
aim to accelerate innovation and increase the rate at which research is 
translated into companies and jobs, including through entrepreneurship 
and the development of an increasingly skilled, globally competitive 
workforce. Comprised of successful entrepreneurs, innovators, angel 
investors, venture capitalists, and leaders from the nonprofit and 
academic sectors, NACIE has presented to the Secretary recommendations 
throughout the research-to-jobs continuum on topics including improving 
access to capital, growing and connecting entrepreneurial ecosystems, 
increasing small business-driven research and development, and 
understanding the workforce of the future. In its advisory capacity, 
NACIE also serves as a vehicle for ongoing dialogue with the 
innovation, entrepreneurship, and workforce development communities.
    The final agenda for the meeting will be posted on the NACIE 
website at http://www.eda.gov/oie/nacie/ prior to the meeting. Any
