Financing Biotech Startups - Biotechnology Business Financing - Biotech Funding: "Every new business needs some startup capital, for research, product development and production, permits and licensing and other overhead costs, in addition to what is needed to pay your staff, if you have any. Once you establish your needs based on the size of your company and what stage of development it is at, you have several options for obtaining funding to choose from. These options are listed below. 1. Grants Academics still in the research stages, might qualify for government grants for equipment and staff (graduate students and technicians) salaries. There are grants available for academic collaborations with industry to facilitate invention commercialization (eg. in Canada, IRAP funds a large number of collaborative biotech projects). Universities that have recognized the potential of their research programs have organizations to help commercialize the discoveries of their scientists (eg. Emtech Bio, a collaborative organization formed by Emory and Georgia Tech Universities, mentioned in my case study on GeoVax).
