Since its founding in 1989, The Maine Aquaculture Innovation Center has encouraged industry development by promoting applied aquaculture research. Each year, MAIC has invited companies and researchers to submit proposals for funding consideration.

MAIC's grants for research have ranged from $5,000 to as much as $30,000, and have required that applicants match MAIC resources on, at least, a 1:1 basis. In April 2008, MAIC made awards for four projects totaling $100,736. Our next Request for Proposals will be announced in early 2009.

The state funds administered by MAIC frequently are matched with resources provided by the federal government, industry, and private foundations interested in community economic development.
