Primary Strategies • • • • Building technology infrastructure Building human infrastructure Building conditions for innovation Building regional development capacity Overview of R&D Fund Program is intended to attract entities who propose to: • engage in applied research that is post proof-of-concept • pursue commercialization within 36 months • invent and/or improve products, processes, or services that originate and remain in the Region (highest priority), or whose value is substantially increased in the Region (lower priority) • provide to the Commission, or its designee, intellectual property rights (“IP”) commensurate with its contribution to the project. • conduct research and development in the following areas: 9 9 9 9 9 Energy (of primary interest to the Commission) Biomedical and Health Care Information Technology Chemical and Materials Environmental Key Requirements • Minimum matching funding of at least 1:1 • Applications will only be accepted from entities located within and/or serving the “Tobacco Region” • Applications that propose to expend Commission resources outside of that Region, either directly or indirectly, will receive limited consideration. • Research performed within the Region whose ultimate benefit is likely to be commercialized outside the Region without majority economic benefit to the Region will receive limited consideration. Eligible Applicants • The governing body of a Virginia city, county, town or industrial development authority. • A private, non-profit entity, properly constituted in Virginia under IRS 501(c). • An education or training institution physically located in Virginia. • Entities not constituted in Virginia but with significant, enduring investments in the Region. • A for-profit entity may apply if joined by a non-profit or governmental entity as coapplicant AND the for-profit entity enters into an agreement with the Commission to create jobs and investments in the Region.
