NASA Awards Minority Serving Institution Innovators
October 31, 2022
Ten minority-serving institutions (MSIs) recently received nearly $600,000 in grants from NASA to amplify diverse voices and help innovators as their ideas become NASA program realities.
The winning MSIs received funding and NASA guidance to forge a partnership with a small business in hopes of proposing to the annual NASA Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I solicitation. This planning grant opportunity, known as MUREP-STTR (M-STTR), incentivizes long-term partnerships between MSIs and small businesses and maximize the potential for new technologies.
