The Innovation Hot Spot program provides five years of corporate, personal income, and sales tax incentives to qualifying tech or manufacturing companies. These eligible companies receive entrepreneurial services during their enrollment through The Tech Garden as the regional Innovation Hot Spot, or through our incubator partners, to help companies grow in Central New York.
The purpose of this NFO is to facilitate the OSD ManTech mission broadly and specifically to deliver the public benefit inherent in the promotion of education and training of the defense manufacturing workforce. OSD ManTech seeks applications from organizations regarding mechanisms and organizational structures needed to identify and categorize the advanced manufacturing workforce, implement and research the effectiveness of advanced manufacturing education and training programs and/or methods, Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education, outreach, and/or workforce development initiatives specific to defense advanced manufacturing.
Early-stage clean energy entrepreneurs face challenges in accessing testing facilities as they progress towards commercialization. The CalTestBed Initiative is a voucher program that assists clean energy entrepreneurs in gaining access to critical testing facilities. It expedites their pathway to commercialization through connection to a network of next-level partners.
NREL is seeking new organizations to join the AMC program and play a strategic role in mitigating support gaps for competitors within AMC and other DOE innovation programs, and to amplify the impact of these programs to a diverse range of stakeholders. The organizations selected will be labeled “Power Connectors,” and will be engaged on individual prizes and other DOE/EERE programming as appropriate.
The objective of this Sources Sought is to identify potential organizations that are qualified and capable of providing support for tasks that Power Connectors could be asked to perform.
The CHIPS Incentives Program aims to catalyze long-term economically sustainable growth in the domestic semiconductor industry in support of U.S. economic and national security. This is the second Notice of Funding Opportunity under this program and seeks applications for projects for the construction, expansion, or modernization of commercial facilities for semiconductor materials and manufacturing equipment for which the capital investment falls below $300 million.
Funds made available under the CHIPS Incentives Program may be spent only on eligible uses, which include the costs to:
• finance the construction, expansion, or modernization of a facility, or equipment for that
facility
• support site development and modernization for a facility
• support workforce development for a facility
• pay reasonable operating expenses for a facility, as determined by the Department.
The DOE Office of Technology Transitions Lab MATCH (Laboratory Making Advanced Technology Commercialization Harmonized) Prize is a $620K, three-phase competition aimed to accelerate national laboratory intellectual property (IP) licensing and commercialization. Lab MATCH provides an opportunity for innovators and entrepreneurs from diverse backgrounds to work directly with national labs and their researchers to accelerate technology commercialization.
Participating national labs include:
We’re looking for world-changing climate tech startups with significant climate impact potential, addressing billion-dollar markets bringing innovations in hard science, hardware, software and business models to the world. If accepted, you’ll take part in our virtual, 18-month accelerator program.
We’re here to help you accelerate the path to commercialization and bridge the gaps to access the financing and resources you need to succeed. We do so by connecting the world’s most promising climate tech startups—like yours—with Third Derivative’s network of committed investors, corporate partners, market experts, and mentors.
The goal of this grant program is to support businesses that manufacture construction materials and products to develop and verify Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), and to states, Indian Tribes, and nonprofit organizations that will support such businesses. This program seeks to improve transparency and disclosure of embodied greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions data associated with construction materials and products to facilitate the procurement of lower embodied carbon construction materials and products throughout the United States. Disclosure of embodied GHG emissions through the development of EPDs based on robust and comprehensive data will enable fair comparison of construction materials and products and facilitate procurement of these products with lower embodied carbon emissions.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), in collaboration with the Cybersecurity Manufacturing Innovation Institute (CyManII), announced a request for proposals for projects that enhance the cybersecurity framework within American manufacturing. This initiative seeks to combine energy-efficient practices with robust cybersecurity measures, showcasing the U.S. commitment to technological innovation and resilience in the manufacturing domain.
The goal of the Office of Science Graduate Student Research (SCGSR) program is to prepare graduate students for science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM) careers critically important to the DOE Office of Science mission, by providing graduate thesis research opportunities at DOE laboratories. The SCGSR program provides supplemental awards to outstanding U.S. graduate students (US citizens or lawful permanent residents) to pursue part of their graduate thesis research at a DOE laboratory/facility in areas that address scientific challenges central to the Office of Science mission. The research opportunity is expected to advance the graduate students’ overall doctoral thesis while providing access to the expertise, resources, and capabilities available at the DOE laboratories/facilities.
This FOA supports the administration goals laid out above by accelerating the
growth of domestic production capability of electric vehicles and components to
meet anticipated increased demand for clean energy technologies as the
economy transitions to net-zero emissions. The program will also aim to:
• Retain and/or return good-quality, high-paying jobs in facilities that
have long served ICE vehicle manufacturing.
• Retain, strengthen, and expand collective bargaining agreements in
automotive facilities.
• Support a just transition for workers and communities in the
transition to electrified transportation, with particular attention to
communities supporting facilities with longer histories in automotive
manufacturing.
• Expand United States electric vehicle and component manufacturing
to meet the goal of having at least 50 percent of all new passenger
cars and light trucks sold in 2030 be zero-emission vehicles, including
battery electric, plug-in hybrid electric, or fuel cell electric vehicles.
• Strengthen domestic supply chains for electrified vehicles as well as
related components and materials.
