Navigate Complex Technology Grant Proposals with our Expert Service

Amidst a surge of government technology investments, Lohfeld’s expert services guide clients through the complexities of technology grants and loans with a robust team of subject-matter experts.

Although the U.S. invented the computer chip, today, our nation produces fewer than 12% of chips worldwide. This has precipitated a wave of government-led grants in U.S. manufacturing and technology aimed at rebuilding our nation’s production leadership and eliminating supply-chain risk. Lohfeld Consulting has made high-tech grants and loans a business focus, adding a strong technical bench with subject-matter experts to help clients navigate the complexities of the offerings.

A primary target was the ‘Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors and Science Act of 2022’ – better known as the CHIPS Act. With a rapid trajectory, the CHIPS Act is providing more than $280B in grants and loans to bring semiconductor manufacturing back to the U.S.

Utilize Lohfeld’s expertise in CHIPS programs

Lohfeld Consulting has already demonstrated leadership in support of CHIPS programs:

Microelectronics Commons: One of the initial programs in CHIPS was to fund a series of ‘Technology Hubs’ across the U.S. – consortiums including members from industry and academia designed to accelerate the development of defense and commercial chips by bridging the ‘lab-to-fab’ gap. Lohfeld supported Arizona State University (ASU) in its bid, which was awarded $39.8M to lead the Southwest Hub, and subsequently helped ASU in bidding on 15 initial prototype projects.

Commercial Fabrication Facilities: The lion’s share of CHIPS funding – some $29B to date – has been in awards to build or expand semiconductor manufacturing facilities (‘fabs’). Lohfeld supported the first awardee and will deliver a multi-hundred-million-dollar funding request on behalf of another applicant later this summer.

Research and Development (R&D) Programs: Lohfeld has commenced support on behalf of a client competing for a NationalAdvanced Packaging Manufacturing Program (NAPMP) funding opportunity for materials and substrates, also to be delivered later this summer.
