Description
The Public Affairs Section (PAS) at U.S. Embassy Manama invites eligible universities and institutions (please refer to Section C) to submit applications that advance high-tech research and innovation in support of the Comprehensive Strategic Integration and Prosperity Agreement (C-SIPA) between the United States, Bahrain, and the United Kingdom. C-SIPA advances strategic cooperation under three core pillars: 1) defense and security; 2) economic, commercial, and trade; and 3) science, technology, and network security. This initiative is part of a broader effort to strengthen American leadership, expand economic opportunity, and reinforce national security through trusted technology partnerships. The Embassy seeks to fund programs that bring together academic institutions and private industry across the three countries in support of the economic and/or advanced technology portions of C-SIPA. This initiative aims to make America and its C-SIPA partners safer and more prosperous by promoting resilient, secure and market-driven technology ecosystems that uphold shared values and deliver measurable outcomes. Priority will be given to proposals that include direct collaboration with U.S. private sector partners and that engage all three C-SIPA countries. If you have any questions about the grant application process in its entirety, please contact: ManamaPAO@state.gov.
