Innovate Alabama Supplemental Grant Program
Opportunity Awaits
Alabama is teeming with homegrown talent and big ideas that have the potential to change the way we live, work and play.
We want to bridge connections and resources for innovative small businesses generating transformative research and technology. That’s why we created the Innovate Alabama Supplemental Grant Program.
These program grants are non-dilutive, meaning you get the money without giving up shares of your company. Eligible applicants (all you dreamers, movers and shakers) have already proven value and viability. Now it’s time for us back you up with additional funding to help move your idea from concept to commercialization.
Overview
The Innovate Alabama Supplemental Grant Program awards funds to Alabama-based companies that have been granted Phase I or Phase II awards through the Federal Small Business Innovation Research Program (SBIR) or Federal Small Business Technology Transfer Program (STTR). If you are not yet based in Alabama, you may be able to qualify. See the guidelines.
The Innovate Alabama Supplemental Program will:
- Grow Alabama’s economy
- Stimulate research and commercialization
- Develop exportable products and services
- Create and retain high-wage jobs in skilled occupations
