The Fall 2009 cycle of the NC IDEA grants program is open!   NC IDEA helps start-up companies by bridging the funding gap between government and private equity support.  Eligible firms interested in grants of up to $50,000 are invited to submit an online pre-proposal application by Friday, September 18 at ncidea.org.

 

Grant Eligibility

The NC IDEA Grants Program awards funding to between four and six firms based in North Carolina that are focused on information technology, medical devices and diagnostics, material sciences or green technologies, with preference given to those that have not received equity financing. Entrepreneurs who have not formed a company may apply, but company incorporation will be required prior to the award of grant funding.
