Paramium Technologies Awarded Competitive Grant from the National Science Foundation
Paramium Technologies has been awarded a National Science Foundation (NSF) Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant for $256,000 to conduct R&D work on efficient manufacturing methods for radio antenna reflectors. The underlying technology was developed by researchers and faculty that stem from the University of Arizona and licensed through Tech Launch Arizona (TLA). To support the launching of this business, Paramium won the UACI Sponsored Launch fueled by R&A CPAs competition which provided entrance into UACI’s incubator program with resources, facilities, services and expert guidance to grow their business. This is a big success not only for the startup, but for the Arizona entrepreneurial ecosystem. When Arizona-based startups win SBIR awards, it is a signal to government agencies that the region is equipped to support the commercialization of novel technologies.
