Edge City SHIFT Grants

The SHIFT Grants Program funds decentralized acceleration (d/acc) projects in six key areas: biosecurity & pandemic defense, cyber defense & cryptography, information resilience, physical resilience & infrastructure, neurotech & augmented cognition, and social technology & governance. We offer Micro Grants ($5 000–$15 000) for prototypes and exploratory experiments, and Development Grants ($20 000–$40 000) for milestone-driven teams, with potential for additional follow-on funding.
