Summary

Technology Innovation and Manufacturing Stimulation Act of 2007 - Authorizes appropriations to the Secretary of Commerce for FY2008-FY2010 for: (1) scientific and technical research and services laboratory activities of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST); (2) the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award program; (3) construction and maintenance of NIST facilities; and (4) NIST Industrial Technology Services activities. Requires the Director of NIST, concurrent with submission to Congress of the President's annual budget request, to transmit a three-year programmatic planning report for NIST and subsequent updates. Establishes a Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) Advisory Board. Allows the Secretary and the Director to accept funds from other federal departments and agencies and from the private sector to strengthen U.S. manufacturing. Requires the Director to establish within the MEP program a program to award competitive grants among the Regional Centers for the Transfer of Manufacturing Technology, or a consortium of such Centers, for the development of projects to solve new or emerging manufacturing problems. Abolishes the Advanced Technology Program. Establishes: (1) the Technology Innovation Program (TIP) to assist U.S. businesses and institutions of higher education to accelerate development and application of challenging, high-risk technologies that promise widespread economic benefits; and (2) a TIP Advisory Board. Increases funding for research fellowships and other financial assistance to students at institutions of higher education within the United States and to U.S. citizens for research and technical activities on NIST programs. Requires the Director to establish: (1) a manufacturing research pilot grants program to make awards to partnerships to foster cost-shared collaborations among firms, educational and research institutions, state agencies, and nonprofit organizations in the development of innovative, multidisciplinary manufacturing technologies; and (2) a manufacturing fellowship program for postdoctoral studies and research activities related to manufacturing sciences.
