About This Grant
The U.S. Department of State s Public Affairs Section (PAS) at U.S. Embassy Manama announces an open competition to support programs that advance high-tech research and innovation under the Comprehensive Strategic Integration and Prosperity Agreement (C-SIPA) between the United States, Bahrain, and the United Kingdom. C-SIPA strengthens trilateral cooperation under three pillars: 1) defense and security; 2) economic, commercial, and trade; and 3) science, technology, and network security. This initiative contributes to broader U.S. efforts to reinforce national security, expand economic opportunity, and promote trusted technology partnerships.

This initiative aims to make America and its C-SIPA partners safer and more prosperous by promoting resilient, secure, and market-driven technology partnerships that uphold shared values and deliver measurable outcomes. Priority will be given to proposals that include direct collaboration with U.S. private sector partners and that engage all three C-SIPA countries.
