President and CEO of NC IDEA Thom Rhue will host a grant prep workshop for anyone in the NC State community who may be interested in applying for an NC IDEA grant during the spring cycle. He will provide insights into the grant process and how to write a strong grant application.  This event is open to faculty, staff, students and alumni.

NC IDEA offers resources and grants to NC-based entrepreneurs. Numerous NC State-affiliated and alumni ventures have received NC IDEA grants, including Sani, Flux Hybrids, Descalza, Freshspire, Allstacks and DNAli.

Workshop attendees will learn about the following grants:

• NC IDEA MICRO awards small, project-based grants to young companies looking to validate and advance their idea.
• NC IDEA SEED offers early-stage companies the critical funding they need to scale faster.
