America’s Wireless Innovation Fund:Securing Our Future * Public Wireless Supply Chain Innovation Fund 5G and other wireless technologies are already changing our world for the better, and they have the potential to do even more. Technologists are hard at work further developing 5G technologies, making them more secure and efficient.
Artificial intelligence (AI) may even play a role in the future of telecommunications by helping manage 5G systems. As 5G further evolves, it will transform how we work, live, do business, and care for our health. Although 5G is dynamic, the 5G equipment market is static.
A small group of companies dominate the market, some of whom pose a serious national security threat. The lack of competition degrades supply chains, causes higher prices, and prevents emerging players from entering the market. Open Radio Access Networks (Open RAN) are key to tackling these market challenges.
Traditional networks rely on a single company to supply every component. Open RAN, on the other hand, is interoperable. Network architects can curate parts from different suppliers to build the best possible network.
New suppliers can now enter the market with one part instead of an entire network architecture. By transitioning to Open RAN, the U.S. and partner countries can help the wireless ecosystem flourish for 5G and beyond. The **Public Wireless Supply Chain Innovation Fund**will advance Open RAN through the $1.
5 billion investment. The Innovation Fund was authorized under the FY 2021 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). The CHIPS and Science Act of 2022 provided funding for the program.
Over the next decade, the Innovation Fund will drive wireless innovation, competition, and supply chain resilience. Its investments will open new doors for companies from the United States and partner nations. ## The Innovation Fund will: * **Promote** 5G+ technologies that are secure, open, and virtualized.
* **Advance** the deployment of open and interoperable equipment. * **Support** the integration of networks with multiple brands of equipment. * **Identify** criteria to decide if equipment follows open standards.

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.
