SCALE Capital: Massachusetts Lab-to-Fab Grant Program
Funds Massachusetts microelectronics teams moving lab-to-fab projects through SCALE Capital grants.
Eligibility · Massachusetts, United States
The Northeast Microelectronics Coalition administers SCALE Capital as a grant program for Massachusetts microelectronics lab-to-fab projects. The source page describes the Supporting Chip Advancement from Lab to Enterprise program as an investment in the Massachusetts microelectronics ecosystem, but the only captured amount is written as "$10M" rather than a digit-form amount, so no structured pool value is stored.
For-profit entities have a direct path only through partnership: the page says they are eligible if they partner with a Massachusetts educational institution, nonprofit organization, or public entity. That makes the grant relevant for companies that can anchor a technical project with a Massachusetts partner, but it is not a single-company startup grant.
The captured page says the application is now closed and thanks applicants for submissions. No next deadline, award range, decision date, scoring rubric, or application URL was captured. Companies should treat this as a closed current round unless NEMC publishes a new SCALE Capital application window.
Microelectronics lab-to-fab work in Massachusetts, including AI hardware, advanced packaging, semiconductor processes, secure edge computing, and quantum-related hardware.
