Funding Pipeline

Potential funding we may pursue across accelerators, grants, and competitions. These are eligibility ceilings and prize maximums, not secured or awarded funding, and the total includes a $75K Futurpreneur loan, which is debt rather than a grant. After this round, NRC IRAP is positioned to fund the scale-up.
