The 2026 NSF Campus Cyberinfrastructure (CC*) Principal Investigator Workshop will convene the national community advancing campus and regional cyberinfrastructure for research and education. This interactive event brings together representatives from active and completed CC* projects, campus and regional CI professionals, and national cyberinfrastructure organizations to exchange knowledge, share best practices, and explore emerging challenges and opportunities.
This year’s program emphasizes collaboration, sustainability, and the human expertise that are key to CC* project implementations. Participants will gain new insights from experienced PIs, connect with peers and resource providers, and engage in focused discussions designed to accelerate impact and broaden participation.
With a portion of this CC* PI workshop program shared with The Quilt member meeting, the workshop offers a unique opportunity to strengthen connections across the regional and national CI community.
This meeting is open to NSF CC* Award Representatives, national CI resource representatives, and Quilt Members who have purchased a Non-PI ticket.
