Well over half of nonprofits plan to collaborate (formally or informally) with other nonprofits in response to the economic hardships resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] Funding collaboration among non-profit research funders can be beneficial in the following ways:
Don’t have a scientific review process? Partner with an organization that does and leverage their infrastructure.
Save investigator application development time, reviewer time, and staff time; Grant more with less effort.
Announce your funding through the extended networks of your collaborative team.
Extend your reach and applicant pool through combined outreach strategies.
Two heads are better than one; two organizations can bring more resources to bear in terms of award selection and support.
