The program is designed to promote and support joint U.S.-Israel industrial R&D in renewable and alternative energy, as well as energy efficiency and advanced vehicle technologies. Entrepreneurs benefit from grants that support innovative projects, the opportunity to collaborate with U.S. and Israeli companies, access to a network of industry experts, and potential follow-on investment.

Detailed application guidelines and deadlines are available on the BIRD Foundation's website.
