Grant Funding is a great tool that companies developing innovative technology can use to support product development. Developing new products, processes and services is inherently risky, therefore, enables companies to fund development with no loss of equity and can offer up to 100% funding for a project.
Grant Funding is typically accessed through a competitive process, in which prospective applicants must define their proposed project and potential benefits within tight word limits and a pre-defined range of questions. These applications are then independently evaluated to ensure fair assessment with only the top scoring proposals awarded funding.
