I currently have a software program that will be for sale to the US
military. I am interested in how to go about geting a government grant
to help me finance this software. $100,000 is needed to finalize this
project, and 1/3rd is paid for out of my own pocket.

Please provide any detailed information on how to go about proceeding with a
grant that will lead to me completing this project, as the minimum
purchase estimate is currently $1.8 mil. Although this project is
currently being paid for out of pocket.

The person with the most detailed info, will be chosen.

Credit is not very good.

-Hoping for advice,
Ryan

If you have good prospects of selling your software then finance
should not be a problem but it's going to take A LOT more than $20 to
suss this out, based on the skimpy information that you have provided.

Please be aware it's that Researchers who CHOOSE whether or not they
are going to provide you with an answer.

You cannot choose from 'the most detailed info'. That's not the way things work.

For your info, I am not a Researcher so I could be wrong - I often am.

Good Luck!

I think your situation demands a strategic approach and a grant is not
the solve here. If your software has a commercial prospect or you
already have a buyer than you will get financial support from banks,
leasing companies and also you can merge with similar software vendor.

If you are not sure about its commercial prospect, invested your
personal belongings to make your dream come true and still far from a
finished product, you can approach organizations who help innovative
researchers. In this case, a software for military is something that
may not appeal those organizations.

At this point you should put enough effort on marketing with what you
have and convince someone to share your risk and profit. A demo
software is a good start.
