$3 Million in Grants!

This year, we are excited to partner with the US-India Science & Technology Endowment Fund. The Endowment will award $3,000,000 in six grants of $500,000 each to deserving technology startups in the first phase of 2012. We hope most of the TiE50 companies had a chance to apply! Those of you who missed out on this opportunity will have another opportunity to apply again in June! TiE50 applicants will be kept posted on the Endowment Board grants. The TiE50 Awards application process will take time. We urge all applicants to get an early start and apply soon.
