Project funding is for one year and must result in agreed-upon deliverables. Each project should proceed in several phases with defined milestones. For example, the first phase may last 60 to 90 days, the second phase may last three to six months, and so on. We recognize that the agreed deliverables may not achieve a product or material that can be immediately commercialized. ISA/SIC will work with the project team to secure support for a defined period beyond the first year.
