This sounds a lot like what CITRIS (Center for Information Technology Research in the Interest of Society), which operates at a few UC campuses - including our own. Prof. Davis has mentioned it a few times, and we hosted the talk last Friday. A lot of what we do is 'spreading awareness' in a way, as we have regular webcasted lectures dealing with tecnology during the better part of the academic year, but the organization at its most basic is a way for people with ideas to receive funding.
