We are pleased to inform you that the Fiscal Year 2023 General Appropriations Act (GAA) has authorized the appropriation of PHP 100 million to support innovation programs, activities, and projects in accordance with the Philippine Innovation Act (RA No. 11293). This presents an excellent opportunity for your agency to receive funding for your innovative ideas.

To streamline the grant application and submission process, we are utilizing the Electronic Innovation Grants Information System (EIGIS). The EIGIS platform is a web-based information system that will simplify the process of submitting and reviewing proposals.

“Before we open the call for proposals for the 2023 Innovation Grants, we invite duly authorized representatives of interested National Government Agencies (NGAs), including their attached agencies, regional offices, and operating units, Local Government Units (LGUs), State Universities and Colleges (SUCs), Local Colleges and Universities (LCUs), and Government-Owned and -Controlled Corporations (GOCCs) to register to the EIGIS system at https://eigis-innovation.neda.gov.ph/register.

We understand that navigating the user registration process can be challenging, but we are here to assist you every step of the way. Our Innovation Fund Management Division (IFMD) is available to answer your questions and provide support via email at innovationfund@neda.gov.ph or through our contact number at 8-631-0960 local 21615.

Thank you for your interest in the EIGIS, and we look forward to receiving your innovative proposals.
