Flash Grants
NCBiotech’s Flash Grant program aims to identify and energize the most creative ideas that exhibit early indications of commercial potential. Like a flash of inspiration, Flash Grants infuse funding at a critical early point when a small, targeted influx of funds can be crucial to shaping innovative research ideas into high potential life sciences technologies, particularly in emerging and converging life sciences sectors. 

Flash Grants are used to demonstrate the disruptive potential of a technology or to move technology into the translational research phase of development.

For the fiscal year 2022, there will be three submission cycles for the Flash Grant program. Cycle-specific focus areas and guidelines will be posted prior to each deadline.

Cycle 3 is open to proposals in all areas of the life sciences, except Class I medical devices or consumer products.
Applicant organizations must be North Carolina universities or non-profit research institutions. Companies and individuals are not eligible to apply for Flash Grant awards.
