About this program
The Maryland Innovation Initiative (MII), a collaboration between TEDCO, the State of Maryland, and five qualifying universities, supports the commercialization of university-developed technologies through technology validation, market assessment, and company formation. Funding totals up to $430,000, including up to $130,000 for Technology Assessment (or $180,000 for joint applications) and up to $300,000 for Company Formation. Full-time faculty at Johns Hopkins University, Morgan State University, and the University of Maryland campuses may apply for Technology Assessment grants, while Maryland-based startups that recently licensed qualifying university technology may apply for Company Formation investments. Applicants must address university-owned technology disclosed to a technology transfer office with appropriate intellectual property protection, obtain a TEDCO ID, and engage a designated Site Miner at least 30 days before submission; applications are due quarterly on January 15, April 15, July 15, and October 15.
