The DOE Genesis Mission offers $293M for AI-driven research across 20+ fields from quantum science to nuclear energy. Phase I applications due April 28, 2026.
Read articleOn July 22, 2026, the Department of Energy opened its FY26 Genesis Mission SBIR/STTR round — roughly 40 Phase I awards across four topic areas (biotech, quantum, materials, and autonomous labs), a $147 million Phase II pool, and a September 10 pitch deadline. This is how small businesses get inside the $5 billion Genesis Mission. Here is what each topic funds, how the money and timeline work, and the concrete strategy to compete.
Read articleThe Department of Energy is investing $145M in early career researchers and $68M in AI for science simultaneously. Together, these programs reveal a deliberate strategy to build an AI-literate research pipeline — and the application windows are open now.
