Organization Overview

OUR TEAM 

opengrants is led by a team of GovTech veterans with a passion for solving tough problems in the public sector. As founders we understand the struggles faced by startups seeking capital. We developed opengrants.io to empower founders. 


OUR PARTNER MOMENTUM

We are pleased to be partnered with Momentum. With a 97% success rate applying for public funding, they have leveraged over +$5B in public funding in the last eight years. Their focus on leveraging public funding to accelerate innovation and years of industry experience makes them ideal allies.


WHY PUBLIC FUNDS?

The government invests billions annually into a funding ecosystem that is fundamentally flawed. A variety of systematic barriers exclude founders from across the nation. We remove those barriers to access and open billions of dollars in opportunities to our users.
