Florida High Tech Corridor Grant

The Florida High Tech Corridor co-invests in industry-sponsored applied research projects led by faculty at the University of Central Florida and the University of South Florida, matching industry contributions with up to $150,000 in funding per project. Industry partners must have a significant presence in the Corridor's 23-county region and collaborate with a university principal investigator on projects that encourage interdisciplinary research and student participation. This program is designed to accelerate applied R&D partnerships between companies and universities, delivering tangible impact including revenue growth and workforce development. Proposals are reviewed year-round, and requirements may vary between the participating universities.
