REOF Tech has broad and extensive experience working with federal agencies that fund higher education and support scientific research.


Several of the higher education consultants at REOF Tech have advanced degrees in their chosen fields while others have worked for federal agencies and Congress. Our network of grant consultants and subject matter experts assists clients by coaching and mentoring faculty writing scientific proposals or by coordinating and writing large institutional grants.

Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Data Science

Our team has been working on AI/ML and Data Science projects since 2020. We have supported the development of various technologies and the acquisition of SBIR funding related to these technologies. The main agencies that we work with as it relates to AI/ML and Data Science are: the National Science Foundation (NSF), the US Department of Defense (DoD), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and the US Department of Energy (DOE).

Deep Technologies and Software

As a company, our big differentiation is our focus on deep technologies and software. As specialists in this area, our value proposition is unique and we offer significant experience in these types of technologies. The SBIRs funded by the NSF are currently focused on funding deep technologies and we are available to support you in this journey. If you want more information about how to define this, feel free to reach out to us.

Defense, Security, and Cybersecurity

The US Department of Defense (DoD), SBIR/STTR program is quite innovative and entities such as the US Air Force continue to innovate and design new ways of delivering the SBIR/STTR programs through customer discovery and the AFWERXs program. Other agencies such as the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) fund significant programs in the intersection of biotechnology, health, and national security. There are a large number of funding opportunities in defense, security, and cyber security within the DoD. We will be glad to support you in this journey. Please reach out to us if you need guidance.

Energy Technologies and Software

During the last couple of years, REOFTech has been developing a growing practice of supporting energy technology and software companies in the acquisition of R&D funding. We have also performed work for the Advanced Research Projects Agency – Energy (ARPA-E) and other state energy programs such as BRIDGE 2020 funded by the California Energy Commission (CEC). We have also worked with venture capitalists and family offices in this space and are proud of the quality work we have produced in this practice area. Some clients have requested work with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) SBIRs as well which we have also performed in the intersection between energy, atmospheric data, data science, and software.

Digital Health, Drug Development, and Medical Devices

The digital health and life sciences area is one of our most exciting practice areas at REOFTech. We have more than a decade of experience in working in the healthcare space with a focus on developing and acquiring funding in technologies that support innovation in the healthcare industry. This practice area mostly seeks to acquire funding through the National Institutes of Health and its affiliated institutes. In addition, we have performed significant work in the digital health space with the NSF. We have worked with many different institutes at NIH.
