Federal Funding Video Library
A wide variety of federal programs can support tech-based economic development (TBED) strategies and initiatives -- even many programs that do not explicitly state that science, technology, innovation, or entrepreneurship are priority uses of funds.
To help organizations identify sources of funding that could be useful, SSTI has created this video series as part of the TBED Community of Practice.
