Early Grant Information for NGOs

The Rural and Underserved Business Recovery from Impact of COVID-19 (RUBRIC) program is an economic relief initiative to benefit socially and economically disadvantaged and rural early-stage technology-based businesses hit hardest by the COVID-19 pandemic. This program is supported by $5M recently allocated from the Governor.

The funds administered by TEDCO will be provided to early-stage companies that are impacted by the current crisis and are in need of bridge funding to survive and prosper as the downturn and COVID-19 crisis subsides. The funds will focus on companies that have the highest barriers to traditional financing but are still expected to scale to the next phase of fundraising. RUBRIC awards are intended to provide funding to help attract/retain jobs, attract/retain customers, and to help sustain companies having difficulties raising capital associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. RUBRIC awards should be thought of as bridging companies across an economic gap created by COVID-19 and leading to a next round of financing or a greater level of sustainability.
