Connecticut Small Business Innovation Grants

A new program called the Connecticut Small Business Innovation and Diversification Program is available for small manufacturers in Connecticut.  This program allows manufacturers to  apply for grants to help develop and commercialize new products.

Eligible companies must either be based in or have significant operations in the state, and have fewer than 500 employees. They also must be willing to match the grants.

The funds will be awarded in grants of up to $25,000 and will continue until June 2011, or until all the money is spent. According to the information I found, this program will be administered by Connecticut Innovations, though I couldn’t find any application information.  However, I just found this particular grant program the day after it was announced, so the guidelines might not have been posted yet.

In any case, if you’re in a high-tech business in Connecticut, you should visit their website because they do have other funding available, including seed and early stage financing.
