Despite the hype the truth is—there is no such thing. Private grants are not available for small business start-up, even for special classes of entrepreneurs.
Alternatives…
What is available is a variety of technical assistance services, financing instruments, and tax credit programs. These are valuable resources that can really give your business a boost if you know how to use them properly. Existing small businesses do have opportunities through the government: research and development funds (SBIR / SBTT Funding), cooperative agreements, and, yes, even some federal grants.
