Quantum Computing (SBIR/STTR) is sponsored by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). This NASA SBIR/STTR subtopic aims to develop and improve quantum, quantum-inspired, and hybrid quantum-classical workflows to demonstrate utility or advantage over existing classical algorithms for high-utility Science Mission Directorate (SMD) problems. It supports mission-aligned projects and measurable outcomes, with a focus on near-to-mid-term technology needs for leveraging quantum computing advances.
NASA SBIR 2026 Phase I Solicitation (Human Systems) is a grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) that funds small businesses developing innovative technologies with strong commercial potential in the area of human space systems. NASA's Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program is a competitive, phased program supporting R&D with potential for commercialization, and Phase I awards establish the technical merit and feasibility of proposed research. The Human Systems focus area includes technologies supporting crew health, performance, habitation, and safety for space exploration missions. Phase I awards provide up to $150,000 in funding. Eligible applicants must be for-profit small business concerns registered in the United States. The application deadline is May 21, 2026.
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.
In January 2026, DOE Policy Flash PF-2026-30 wiped out every 15% and 10% indirect cost cap the administration had imposed in 2025 — because H.R. 6938 ordered it to. The same law froze indirect policy at NSF, Commerce and NASA. But OMB's sweeping new grants rule quietly reopens the fight through the back door. Here is what changed, what money recipients can claw back, and how to protect your indirect recovery going forward.
Read articleFor Program Year 2026, NASA replaced its single January SBIR/STTR solicitation with a Broad Agency Announcement that releases topics in appendices throughout the year — with proposal limits resetting each time. Phase I awards now run up to $225,000. Here is what the structural shift means, why it favors prepared companies, and how to build a year-round SBIR strategy around it.
Read articleNASA 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.
