BIRD Foundation
BIRD = Binational Industrial Research and Development

 Joint fund, established in 1977 as a joint initiative
       between the US and Israeli governments

BIRD’s Approach in a Nutshell
 BIRD helps in finding strategic partners (“matchmaking”)
 BIRD offers conditional grants for joint development on a
  risk sharing basis (private sector cost-share)
 BIRD funds up to 50% of each company’s R&D expenses
  associated with the joint project
 BIRD claims repayments as royalties only if commercial
  revenues are generated from the project (repayments: up
  to 150% of the original conditional grant, CPI adjusted)
 As an example of mutual benefit: U.S. company benefits
  from access to innovation and IP; Israeli company benefits
  from complementary required capabilities and market
  access (other combinations are possible, e.g.,
  complementary technologies)
