SyracuseCoE announced that it is accepting proposals for up to $10,000 from current and new Partners, including the larger University community. The Innovation Fund is funded by member companies of the SyracuseCoE Partner Program to help companies overcome barriers in the process of commercializing potentially transformative innovations.

Deadline is Thursday, October 20th, EXTENDED TO 11:59 PM
Companies at all partner levels—Industry, Affiliate and Start-Up—are invited to apply. Projects must address a challenge within SyracuseCoE’s core focus areas, which include indoor environmental quality, clean and renewable energy, and water resources.
