The 18th Annual Non-Dilutive Funding Summit

The 18th Non-Dilutive Funding Summit brought together hundreds of life science industry leaders with directors at ARPA-H, BARDA, SEED, NIA, NHLBI, NIAID, NINDS, and CIRM, so the innovators could learn about non-dilutive funding opportunities for their R&D directly from the funding agencies.

This free summit is hosted by the FreeMind Group. FreeMind helps companies secure non-dilutive funding for life science R&D and wins over $100 million each year for clients.

The 19th Non-Dilutive Funding Summit will be January 10, 2024.

NIH Support for Biomedical Product Development

Small Business Education and Entrepreneurial Development (SEED)

Small Business Education and Entrepreneurial Development (SEED) accelerates the conversion of scientific discoveries into healthcare solutions. SEED identifies and scales approaches that enable researchers at small businesses, in academic, and elsewhere to convert scientific discoveries into impactful healthcare solutions. SEED also coordinates early-stage product development activities across the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and collaborates with universities and research institutions, small businesses, trade associations and societies, angel investors, venture capitalists, and strategic partners. SEED educates and assists NIH-funded innovators as they transition from discovery science to product development. SEED helps academic innovators validate the potential health impacts of their discoveries through a national network of proof-of-concept centers and provides a host of professional advisory services to small business innovators funded by NIH’s $1.2 billion/year SBIR and STTR programs.
