Non- Dilutive Funding From the AI/Tech + Aging A2 Collective!
from The AgeTech Podcast - by TheGerontechnologist · host Keren Etkin
One of the things early stage AgeTech startups need, is funding for pilots that prove the efficacy of their product. For U.S. based companies, SBIR grants have been a wonderful route to go. Now, there's an additional route for getting NIA funding for smaller scale pilot programs - the a2Collective program. Applications are open until August 15, and the first step of the process only requires an application of a couple of pages. Startups selected for the program can receive up to $200,000 in non-dilutive funding, and get a chance to pilot with leading research universities in the U.S. I invited Stephen Liu, co-founder and managing director of the AI/Tech + Aging a2 Collective to the AgeTech podcast to talk about the program. The webinar hosted by the a2 Collective can be found here. For more AgeTech content, visit TheGerontechnologist.com.
