 The Imagining Grant Program has been established to develop a robust pipeline of commercializable technologies that offer potential for improved quality of life, new company formation and creation of new jobs and wealth for the region. Imagining Grants provide funding and business mentors for entrepreneurs to conduct the work necessary to transition promising, signature-area technologies into significant commercialization opportunities. Awards are made on a highly competitive basis to advance the business goals of the project – for example technology validation studies, market analysis and other work associated with positioning the project to attract outside funding or make the project self-sustainable and profitable. General information: Priority technology areas for funding are Biotechnology, Information Technology, and Advanced Manufacturing & Materials. Technology must be ready to transition from the basic research stage of development to building the technical and business case and show potential for intellectual property. The maximum amount of funding available for Imagining Grants is $40,000. You must be located or willing to locate in one of 7 Southwestern Ohio counties (Brown, Butler, Clermont, Clinton, Hamilton, Highland, or Warren). CincyTech provides three types of Imagining Grants - click the links below for more information and detailed submission requirements: Community Grants - for all applicants who do not fit into either of the above applicant pools.
