Biomedical Research Council Science and Engineering Research Council INDUSTRY ALIGNMENT FUND – INDUSTRY COLLABORATION PROJECTS (IAF-ICP) The Industry Alignment Fund – Industry Collaboration Project (IAF-ICP) supports Public Research Performers in strategic R&D collaborations with industry.
The aim is to foster industry-relevant public sector R&D efforts, and Public Research Performers to collaborate with industry, with a line of sight to potential economic outcomes.
This grant is different from typical academic grants, as proposals will be assessed primarily on their potential economic impact and relevance to building up Singapore’s R&D ecosystem : Potential to generate product or process innovations to the industry player(s) involved (i.e. improved processes or products); Potential to generate higher economic or R&D activity for industry player(s) involved (e.g. through creation of R&D jobs, increased market share, reduced costs, and improved productivity); Potential to deepen tech-or-people capabilities in locally based companies (e.g. through upskilling, enhanced training, and development of new IPs); Ability to uplift the ecosystem (e.g. by fostering collaborations with other locally based enterprises such as suppliers); Level of the industry partner’s commitment to research and innovation in Singapore; and The duration of IAF-ICP projects should not exceed 36 months, although exception may be made for Corp Labs (up to 60 months) on a case-by-case basis.
The IAF-ICP is governed by a Strategic Oversight Committee (SOC) comprising CEO A*STAR, MD EDB, MD EnterpriseSG and CEO NRF. The SOC makes decisions on all IAF-ICP policies and project approvals. IAF-ICP is open to all Public Research Institutions in Singapore.
Companies are not eligible , nor will they be considered as co-applicants. All applications are to be submitted by the Public Research Institutions – applications submitted directly by individual researchers will not be accepted. Thank you for your support.
Applications for RIE2025 IAF-ICP FI are now closed. Information on RIE2030 funding initiatives will be made available in the last quarter of this tranche, i.e. between January and March 2026.
For proper stewardship of the IAF-ICP funding, grant awardees should regularly monitor the project progress against their milestones and deliverables, as well as budget utilisation and IRS realisation , and report on any issues faced to the IAF-ICP Implementing Agency in a timely manner during the project term. For enquiries, you may reach us at IAF_ICP@hq. a-star.

On August 26, 2026, NSF named the STC class of 2026: TEMPEST at Michigan State, GENIE at Northwestern, and a human-robot co-adaptation center at UT Austin. $90 million total, $6 million a year each. The 2023 class was four centers and $120 million. The award size is intact; the shelf space shrank 25 percent — and that is the number that should reshape how you plan a center proposal.
Read articleOn July 22, 2026 the White House committed more than $5 billion to expand the Genesis Mission — the government-wide 'AI for science' effort — announcing 278 first projects and 14 National Science and Technology Challenges spanning health, energy, infrastructure, manufacturing, and national security. More than 15 federal agencies are contributing awards, datasets, and facilities. Here is how the pieces fit, why it reorganizes the science-funding map, and how to position for the awards flowing out of it.
Read articleOn July 22, 2026 the White House announced more than $5 billion and 15-plus federal agencies behind the Genesis Mission — a national effort to point AI at the hardest problems in science. Here is what the mission actually funds, how its five National Science and Technology Challenges map to real solicitations already opening, and how a research team or small business should position for the money flowing out of it.
