NATO Innovation Fund

The NATO Innovation Fund (NIF) was created to supercharge the Alliance’s unique innovation ecosystems. Allied talent and research in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) are world-leading, but the market to support deep tech innovation is underfunded. With the NIF, we are creating a commercialisation machine in both the private and public sectors, backing innovators to secure the future for the Alliance's 1 billion citizens. 

NIF's focus is on: 

• AI
• Autonomy
• Quantum
• Biotechnologies
• Hypersonic Systems
• Space
• Novel materials&Manufacturing
• Energy&Propulsion
• Next -Generation Communications
