NVIDIA Graduate Fellowship Program is a grant from NVIDIA providing up to $60,000 per award to PhD students conducting research that advances accelerated computing and its applications. Now in its 25th year, the program invites nominations from doctoral students pushing the boundaries of artificial intelligence, robotics, autonomous vehicles, and related fields. Recipients receive not only research funding but also access to NVIDIA technology, products, and engineering expertise, along with a mandatory in-person summer internship. Students are nominated by their faculty advisors and selected based on academic achievement and research area alignment.
CalSEED Concept Award is a grant from the California Energy Commission that provides $150,000 in funding to early-stage clean energy innovators in California. The program targets individuals, businesses, and nonprofits developing hardware, software, or integrated solutions at Technology Readiness Levels 2-4. Eligible technology areas rotate each cycle and have included battery recycling and reuse, long-duration energy storage, medium- and heavy-duty vehicle electrification, industrial electrification, and advanced EV charging. Applicants must be located in California, have under $1 million in private funding, and propose innovations that benefit California ratepayers. Concept Award winners also receive professional development resources and access to accelerator programs, and may compete for a subsequent $450,000 Prototype Award.
NIST SBIR Phase I - Advanced Manufacturing and Robotics is sponsored by National Institute of Standards and Technology. NIST SBIR Phase I - Advanced Manufacturing and Robotics is a grant from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) that funds small businesses with innovative research and technology ideas in advanced manufacturing and robotics.
NASA shifted its SBIR/STTR program from a single-cycle solicitation to a Broad Agency Announcement on April 17, 2026 — valid through September 30, 2027 — with subtopics released in rolling appendices. The structural change ends 41 years of predictable January-to-March deadlines and forces space startups to rebuild their proposal pipelines around continuous monitoring rather than annual sprints.
Read articleOn April 17, 2026, NASA released a SBIR/STTR Broad Agency Announcement valid through Sept 30, 2027 — replacing the legacy annual solicitation cycle with rolling appendices. The first two appendices closed May 21. A complete strategic analysis for space-tech founders adapting to the new model.
Read articleNASA selected 15 small businesses for SBIR Ignite Phase I awards on April 14 in AI, robotics, and radar. The $150K Phase I gates a $1.275M Phase II — and the commercialization-first framing is reshaping who should apply where.
