The Alaska Blue Economy Center has partnered with the Alaska Center for Energy and Power and the Center for Innovation, Entrepreneurship and Commercialization to offer $125,000 in grant technical assistance support for up to 20 Alaska-based organizations interested in soliciting federal and foundation funding that directly benefits our coastal communities, particularly in the areas of mariculture and energy, and innovation within those sectors.
