Funding is available for organizations that aid companies in developing the next generation of technologies.
Under the Build to Scale Program, EDA is soliciting applications for two competitions:
2023 Venture Challenge; and 2023 Capital Challenge.
EDA is excited to announce the launch of its new grants management platform:
the Economic Development Grants Experience (EDGE).
