Opportunity Information: Apply for TOKYO PAS FY23 01 03
The "Accelerate Innovation and Startup Collaboration" grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number: TOKYO PAS FY23 01 03) is a discretionary funding program offered by the U.S. Department of State through U.S. Mission to Japan, specifically the U.S. Embassy Tokyo Public Affairs Section. The program is designed to support an exchange initiative that strengthens U.S.-Japan collaboration around innovation, with a particular emphasis on priority areas tied to critical and emerging technologies. In practical terms, the funding is meant to help an organization plan and run structured exchanges that bring together stakeholders from both countries such as entrepreneurs, startup ecosystem leaders, researchers, and other innovation-focused participants to share expertise, build relationships, and advance cooperative work.
The grant uses a standard grant funding instrument and sits within activity areas that include Business and Commerce as well as Science and Technology and other Research and Development. This positioning signals that the project is expected to be more than a general cultural exchange; it should connect directly to innovation outcomes, startup collaboration, and technology-focused cooperation that aligns with shared U.S.-Japan interests. While the notice is concise, the central purpose is clear: strengthen bilateral ties by creating a program that facilitates real engagement between the two ecosystems and accelerates collaboration in technology-forward sectors.
Eligibility is limited to two categories of applicants: public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations that hold 501(c)(3) status with the IRS (excluding higher education institutions in that nonprofit category description). The opportunity anticipates making a single award, indicating a competitive process where one organization will be selected to implement the exchange program. The maximum award amount (ceiling) is $70,000, which suggests a focused, targeted project scope such as convenings, workshops, site visits, speaker programming, or other exchange-related components that can be delivered within a modest budget.
Key dates included in the listing show the opportunity was created on December 21, 2022, with an original application deadline of February 19, 2023. In summary, this grant is a small, single-award State Department program intended to fund one eligible U.S. organization to run an exchange that deepens U.S.-Japan innovation cooperation, particularly in critical and emerging technology areas, through a structured set of collaborative activities.Apply for TOKYO PAS FY23 01 03
