Philadelphia Quality Jobs Grant
Philadelphia Quality Jobs Grant
Philadelphia Department of Commerce
ABOUT THE GRANT
The Quality Jobs Program (QJP) provides Philadelphia businesses with grants of up to $175,000 for creating new full-time jobs that pay living wages and include health insurance and paid time off for Philadelphia residents. Administered by the City of Philadelphia's Department of Commerce, the program is designed to invest in employers expanding their workforce with family-sustaining positions. First-time applicants can receive $7,000 per new qualifying job for up to 25 jobs after meeting performance requirements, while businesses re-applying after a successful prior award can receive $5,000 per new job, up to a $125,000 cap. To qualify, jobs must be located in Philadelphia, offered to Philadelphia residents, full-time and permanent (at least 30 hours per week or 1,500 hours per year), and pay at or above the Philadelphia Minimum Wage Standard. Eligible employers must have been operating for at least one year, be current on city business taxes, and provide paid sick leave and health insurance. Home-based businesses and nonprofits are not eligible. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, and participating businesses must commit to meaningful workforce growth: at least five new full-time hires for companies with more than 25 employees, or a 20% workforce increase for smaller companies.

Other Grants
KY SBIR/STTR Matching Grant
Kentucky Innovation
KY Innovation offers comprehensive programs to help companies apply for, win and match federal Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) grants and contracts. The SBIR/STTR programs are known as America's Seed Fund for good reason. They provide a vital source of non-dilutive capital in the form of federal grants and contracts for promising technologies, while allowing innovators to maintain intellectual property and positioning them well to receive private follow on funding. KY Innovation can be a key partner in helping you compete. Innovators that receive SBIR or STTR awards can benefit from additional funding to bridge the gap between Phase I and Phase II, as well as to speed up the commercialization process. The Kentucky SBIR/STTR Matching Funds Award Program is a non-dilutive, reimbursable grant, awarded on a competitive basis. The grant will match up to $100,000 for a Phase I project, and up to $150,000 for a phase two project. Applicants must be recipients of a SBIR/STTR award, a for-profit company, and based in, or willing to re-locate to, Kentucky.
Texas Enterprise Fund
State of Texas
The Texas Enterprise Fund awards “deal-closing” grants to companies considering a new project for which one Texas site is competing with other out-of-state sites. The fund serves as a performance-based financial incentive for those companies whose projects would contribute significant capital investment and new employment opportunities to the state’s economy. Eligible applicants include all companies planning a new project including a facility opening or expansion, with significant projected job creation and capital investment, where a single site in Texas is actively competing with at least one viable out-of-state option.
Basic Research on The Deleterious Effects of Acute Exposure to Ultra-Potent Synthetic (UPS) Opioids
National Institutes of Health
This notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) will support research towards understanding and mitigating the deleterious effects of acute exposure to Ultra-Potent Synthetic (UPS) opioids (e.g., fentanyl, carfentanil, nitazenes) and their combinations (fentanyl and xylazine). This NOFO will also support research on the persistent and/or delayed pathophysiological effects after acute exposure to such agents.
Batavia Microenterprise Grant
City of Batavia
The Batavia Microenterprise Assistance Program (MAP) provides Batavia, New York microenterprises with grants ranging from $5,000 to $35,000 to support the creation or expansion of small businesses with five or fewer employees. Administered by the Batavia Development Corporation (BDC) on behalf of the City of Batavia and funded through New York State Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) dollars, the program is designed to help small business owners invest in their operations while creating employment opportunities for low-to-moderate income individuals in the city. Grant funds may be used for machinery, equipment, furnishings, fixtures, inventory, operating costs, and other working capital expenses, but cannot be used for construction, renovations, leasehold improvements, or demolition. Eligible applicants must operate or plan to operate within the City of Batavia, have five or fewer employees (including the owner), and may be structured as a sole proprietorship, partnership, corporation, LLC, or other legal business form. Because the program is funded with federal CDBG dollars, all grants must meet a national objective: applicants must either be owned by a low-to-moderate income individual or create at least one full-time-equivalent job available to low-to-moderate income persons. Additional program requirements include a 10% equity contribution by the business, completion of an entrepreneurial training course through Brockport SBDC or Niagara SBDC before receiving funds, submission of a complete business plan, and a commitment to continue operating in Batavia for at least 12 months following grant closing. Nonprofit organizations are not eligible.
