Technology Innovation Grant (Innovating Alabama Tax Credit Program) is sponsored by State of Alabama. This program funds technology accelerators and innovative companies through the Innovating Alabama Tax Credit Program. It fosters economic development by supporting economic development organizations (EDOs) in creating and operating tech accelerator programs, with a focus on underrepresented companies including those targeting minority entrepreneurs, rural communities, and women-owned businesses. The program also targets the growth of innovative companies, providing tax credits to EDOs that support specific for-profit entities.

NCI Continuing Umbrella of Research Experiences (CURE) Academic Career Excellence (ACE) Award (K32) is a grant from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) that funds early postdoctoral fellows from diverse backgrounds, including underrepresented groups, to pursue research training in cancer-related fields.

The program, operated through NCI's Center to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities (CRCHD), aims to enhance the pool of qualified diverse cancer researchers. Beginning with the June 12, 2025 due date, the CURE ACE Award is available in both Independent Clinical Trial Required and Independent Clinical Trial Not Allowed versions. Eligible applicants must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents at time of award.
