c. Fiscal Report
Deadlines for submission of the Executive Summaries and the Proposals for BIRD Projects are published on our website 3-4 months prior to these dates. Submission of all the documents is done exclusively by uploading them to BIRD’s upload site (https://upload.birdf.com). Following the deadline, the upload site is closed for further submissions.
An applicant must meet and consult with BIRD prior to submission of any application.
The Executive Summary is a concise document on which we base a “GO-NO GO” recommendation. Therefore, it is highly recommended to speak with a member of the BIRD staff before submitting an Executive Summary. An initial discussion may be held with our staff in Israel or in the U.S.
We need as much information as you can give. A company profile should include the following; people (founders, investors), funding raised, the innovation, status of development, patent situation, product road map, commercialization plans and activities, and website.
Other important information required: Does a partnership currently exist or is one being sought, information about the partner (similar information required about both companies), project idea, road map for development and commercialization, status of negotiations with partner and readiness to participate in a BIRD project.
Submission of a “mock-up” Executive Summary of a BIRD project may be very helpful (template for the Executive Summary can be downloaded from the BIRD website).
BIRD can use its network and contacts within the Israeli and the US markets to help companies identify potential partners for their R&D project.
Information provided by a company, including a list of potential companies and a value proposition can help us to accelerate the process and improve the results.
BIRD manages three vertical programs- BIRD Energy, BIRD HLS and BIRD Cyber.
In most aspects, the process to submit to these programs is the same as the one for the General Program, with the
following exceptions:
In all three vertical programs, one of the applicants may be a University or Research institute as long
as the other is a corporation.
The maximum grant amount for BIRD Energy and BIRD Cyber is $1.5M as in the General Program. For
BIRD HLS the maximum grant amount is $1M.
No – we will not allow a proposal to be submitted before participating companies have submitted their full set of final reports on previous project.
