DoD has announced a new initiative, the National Security Innovation Capital (NSIC) that may be of interest to you. NSIC enables dual-use hardware startup companies to advance their product’s transition to market by addressing the shortfall of private investment from trusted sources. NSIC awards Other Transaction (OT) agreements to accelerate commercialization efforts. Their technology focus in on next-generation hardware for application to connected mobile and edge systems for operations in land, sea, air, and space domains. NSIC seeks to work with U.S. startups which span early stage (at least proof of concept-TRL3 or higher) to late stage (pre-production). Awards will range between $500K and $3M. Performance periods will range between 12-18 months. NSIC funds may be combined with other Government funding and private sources as long as they are all U.S.-based public or private sources.
Details on technologies of interest and the process for submitting a proposal can be found on their website at: https://www.nsic.mil/
