NSF reopened its Project Pitch portal on June 2 and posted two distinct solicitations — NSF 26-510 for general deep tech and NSF 26-511 for scientific instrumentation. The first full-proposal deadline is July 27, 2026. Here is why the split matters, who the $40M instrumentation lane is actually for, and how founders should choose a track before submitting a pitch.
Read articleNSF restarted its SBIR/STTR programs on May 31, 2026 after a multi-month hiatus, with a $250 million FY26 allocation, a Project Pitch portal reopen on June 2, and a first full-proposal deadline of July 27, 2026. The big structural changes: a new Strategic Breakthrough tier that extends invited Phase II companies up to $30 million, and a $40 million pilot for next-generation scientific instrumentation. Phase I tops out at $305K, Phase II at $1.25M, with November 4 and March 4, 2027 windows behind the July 27 first deadline. For deep-tech startups that watched the NIH SBIR omnibus go dark and DARPA pull back on conventional Phase II slots, this is the most consequential reopening of the year — and the Strategic Breakthrough tier is the first time NSF has competed directly with venture capital at growth-stage check sizes.

A separate \$40M instrumentation pilot (NSF 26-511) funds next-generation scientific tools. Here is what changed from prior cycles, who the program actually fits, and how to position a Project Pitch for the July deadline.
