Software/Training Grants Enable Faster Deployment Of Medical Devices

Offering software and training grants in 2009, National Instruments (NI) continues its investment to further medical-device development. The company is accepting applications for the 2009 Medical Device Grant Program, which provides start-up assistance for those interested in using its hardware as a component of their medical devices.

The grant program awards up to $25,000 in software and services to start-up medical device companies that are evaluating NI hardware as a component of their devices. The goal of the grant program is to help start-up companies reduce the cost and complexity of development by providing them with technology such as the NI LabVIEW graphical system design platform.

NI is accepting applications for the grant program until November 30, 2009. For more details, visit NI’s Developer Zone.
