Research Grants Now Available from Washington Technology Center

Are you working on innovative technology applications with near-term commercial potential?

Consider applying for a Washington Technology Center grant to offset the costs of your R&D.

WTC awards hundreds of thousands of dollars in grants to Washington-based research teams in an effort to help transition great ideas out of the laboratory and into the marketplace.

If you are a Washington technology business looking to partner with an academic or non-profit researcher on a collaborative research endeavor, you may be eligible for a funding award through WTC’s Research and Technology Development grants program.

These awards help Washington companies grow faster, create jobs and attract investors by providing the critical funding needed to advance scientific research and product development.

RTD awards pay up to 80% of the cost of research projects -allowing you to channel your capital to other business growth needs or continue working on breakthrough scientific discoveries.

WTC allocates more than $1.2 million annually for these grants, which are awarded on a competitive basis to collaborative research teams working on innovative technology projects with strong commercial potential.

WTC is now accepting proposals for its next round of grants which will be awarded in December, 2006. Projects begin January 1. But hurry, application deadlines are drawing near. Notice of Intent deadline is September 14 and applications are due October 19.
