The NIH Research Evaluation and Commercialization Hub (REACH) program is a partnership program between NIH and the qualifying research institutions to accelerate the creation of small businesses and the transition of discoveries originating from academic research into products that improve patient care and enhance health.

Donor Name: National Institutes of Health (NIH)

States: All States

County: All Counties

U.S. Territories: American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands

Type of Grant: Grant

Deadline: 02/09/2023

Size of the Grant: $1,000,000

Grant Duration: 4 years

Details:

REACH Hubs foster the advancement of therapeutics, preventatives, diagnostics, devices, and research tools that address unmet patient and public health needs across the entire NIH mission. Applicants are encouraged to focus on building robust entrepreneurial ecosystems in the areas of highest U.S. burden of disease and disability and areas that historically attract lower levels of private biomedical capital investment.

This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) announces the renewal of the NIH Research Evaluation and Commercialization Hub (REACH) program, established to facilitate and accelerate the translation of academic biomedical discoveries into products that improve patient care and public health. Through this program, NIH will provide the qualifying institutions with the funds to seed the creation of academic entrepreneurship Hubs. Hubs will be responsible for providing innovators with both the initial investment and resources to support the proof-of-concept work and the mentorship in product development and commercialization needed to develop high priority technologies within the NIH’s mission. Funded Hubs are intended to work as a consortium to enable:

  • the infrastructure for identifying the most promising technologies,
  • funding for product definition studies (e.g. feasibility studies, prototype development, proof-of-concept studies) provided to individual researchers,
  • access to resources and expertise in areas required for early stage technology development (including scientific, regulatory, reimbursement, business, legal, and project management), and
  • skills development and hands-on experience in entrepreneurship. Establishing public private partnerships and providing additional non-federal funds will be critical for success.

The program aims to strengthen and de-risk technologies toward this goal through a team-based developmental approach that addresses downstream requirements, including but not limited to intellectual property, regulatory, and reimbursement issues, and business case development. It is expected that spinout companies will be in a position to submit strong SBIR and STTR program applications. The Hubs will establish novel partnerships, strengthen existing alliances between stakeholders (including academic, non-profit, and industry sectors), provide entrepreneurial educational opportunities for innovators from diverse backgrounds, and create cultural and systemic changes to more rapidly transform breakthrough innovations into products that will have health, economic, and societal impact.

Hubs must meet all the following requirements

  • Hub Leadership
  • Collaborations and Partnerships
  • Regional and Local Impact
  • Technology Development
  • Project Management
  • Educational Activities

The Hub should catalyze professional development by

  • Training innovators to assess the commercial potential of their research discoveries and to develop comprehensive product development plans
  • Bringing together experienced entrepreneurs and scientists to provide guidance and mentoring
  • Providing the broader investigator community with access to forums, seminars, workshops, and related activities
  • Providing connections between research performing institutions and life science businesses, industries, and sources of private capital
  • Providing focused entrepreneur support and “hands-on learning” targeted at the needs of the innovator, so that scientists have the opportunity to engage in entrepreneurial activities.
  • Cross-disciplinary (science, business, regulatory, reimbursement, etc.) career development is highly encouraged to achieve the goal of exposing innovators to the myriad processes required to translate discoveries into marketable products.

Award Budget

The maximum budget for a Hub is $1,000,000 total costs per year.

Award Project Period

The maximum project period is 4 years.
