The NITRD Subcommittee of the NSTC guides the multiagency NITRD Program in its work to provide the R&D foundations for ensuring continued U.S. technological leadership and for meeting the Nation's needs for advanced IT. The National Coordination Office (NCO) supports the NITRD Subcommittee and its Interagency Working Groups (IWGs) ( https://www.nitrd.gov/about/).
