That’s where we come in—we help bridge that gap, ensuring your application meets the expectations and standards required for funding success.

We were thrilled to support another successful grant application for Cauldron Ferm, this time for USD$1.76m in the USA! ✈️ Hand in hand we’ve secured many millions together in both the Australian and US market to support Cauldron’s scale up to its first-of-a-kind biomanufacturing facility with the purpose of delivering far more efficient and environmentally sustainable protein. #FOAK #scaleup #nondilutivefunding #expansion
🏭🌱 PERFECT DAY, EVERY CO, LIBERATION LABS AMONG FINAL WINNERS OF US GOVT BIOMANUFACTURING GRANTS The US government is betting big on precision fermentation to fuel its biotech revolution, with five of its nine final grants under a manufacturing programme going to future food companies working with this technology. Perfect Day, The EVERY Company, Cauldron Ferm, Liberation Labs and Checkerspot were among the awardees of the United States Department of Defense’s Distributed Bioindustrial Manufacturing Program (DBIMP), which looks to advance the national fermentation capacity and boost the defence material supply across food, fuel, fitness, firepower and fabrication. The latest round of funding marks the end of the first phase of the DBIMP, whose grants will help companies draw up plans to build biomanufacturing facilities on US shores. Follow-on funding of up to $100M is available for companies to construct these plants. “The next industrial revolution will be a biomanufacturing revolution. DoD is keenly aware of that reality,” said Heidi Shyu, undersecretary of defence for research and engineering. Apart from these companies, Chicago-based Nature's Fynd nabbed $1.38M from the DoD to plan a facility to grow its fungi-based Fy protein, which can be incorporated into meals for the military. And DSM Nutritional Products received $2.07M for a site that will expand domestic production of omega-3 fatty acids for food, which are increasingly being imported. Other food-focused fermentation startups benefitting from the first phase of DBIMP grants include The Better Meat Co., Air Protein, C16 Biosciences, Onego Bio, and Savor.

What if 50% of your capital came from non-dilutive funding sources like grants or concessional debt? 🤔 Most startups don’t realise the scale of government funding available. Instead, they over-dilute themselves and their early investors—those who took the biggest risks to support their vision. That’s neither good nor fair. We’re here to help founders retain more ownership, leverage non-dilutive funding, and scale their tech to create global impact.

🚀We recently sat down with Phil Morle from Main Sequence to explore the pivotal role government investment plays in securing venture capital for startups. 🚀 Government support is crucial in signaling confidence to venture capitalist firms. When governments invest in innovative ventures, they communicate that these projects are credible and worthy of investment. This endorsement significantly reduces perceived risk for investors, making them more likely to commit resources to early-stage companies. Effective signaling is vital in the Deep Tech landscape, where developments often require substantial investment and time to mature. By demonstrating public sector confidence, we can catalyse private investment, accelerating the growth of transformative technologies. Non-dilutive funding is particularly valuable in this context, as it enables startups to access essential resources without sacrificing equity. At Scale Impact, we are dedicated to navigating the landscape of grants and funding opportunities. We empower startups to unlock their full potential and drive innovation. #DeepTech #nondilutivefunding #governmentfunding #scaleup #innovation #venturecapital #startups
