SmartTab was selected to receive funding from OEDIT’s Advanced Industries Accelerator Grant Program. This highly competitive grant allocates funds to recipients during the grant cycle of 2021 for Proof-of-Concept and Early Stage Capital and Retention Grants. These funds support Colorado’s advanced industries to push innovation.
SmartTab is the first wireless powered and controlled ingestible electronic capsule drug delivery system on the market. It has been patented, completed PK Pre-Clinical Animal studies and planning additional studies.
“The Advanced Industries grants expand Colorado’s vital innovation ecosystem that supports our economic growth […] These innovative companies create jobs and leverage additional investment in Colorado, and are even more important as the nation focuses on economic recovery.” – Katie Woslager Senior Manager, Advanced Industries
Proof-of-Concept grants are available to Colorado-based: research universities, federal labs (in Colorado), and labs with valid technology transfer offices in Colorado for pre-commercialization research and commercialization preparation. Early Stage Capital and Retention grants help companies to commercialize innovative technologies so that they can create viable products that meet market needs and can be created or manufactured in Colorado and exported globally.
The AI Accelerator Grant program had 100 applications this grant cycle. Twenty-four companies were invited to participate in a pitch session in October. Final recommendations were approved by the Economic Development Commission on November 19, 2020.
