The Principled Innovation Infrastructure for Discovery and Engagement initiative is designed to build ASU’s institutional infrastructure and leverage its capacity to center Principled Innovation in large-scale research, discovery, engagement and impact.


By embedding Principled Innovation into institutional pathways and the development of large-scale proposals, PrIIDE promotes ethical and responsible decision-making, character growth and collaborative impact. It connects diverse university initiatives, including over 100 public interest technology projects, into a unified, cross-disciplinary community. Through anticipatory, participatory and interdisciplinary approaches, PrIIDE advances ASU’s charter and design aspirations, reinforcing ASU’s leadership in interdisciplinary research and responsible innovation.
