Vermont EPSCoR is pleased once again to offer funding opportunities for Vermont researchers and small businesses. Applications for the 2026-2027 Pilot Research Grant Program and the 2026-2027 Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase(0) Grant Program are open!
 
Each award offers up to $15,000 of funding to eligible applicants. On December 5th, Vermont State EPSCoR Director Bernard "Chip" Cole held a webinar to answer questions regarding both funding opportunities. The slides from that webinar can be found here.
