Reciprocal Innovation Grants Program

The Indiana CTSI’s reciprocal innovation grants program offers two pilot funding opportunities that assist in the design, demonstration, replication, and dissemination of health innovations developed through collaborations with our global partners.

We All Win With Reciprocal Innovation

Building on the concept of ‘reverse innovation’, reciprocal innovation:

Recognizes the value of local expertise and resources and promotes more equitable partnerships.
Promotes collaboration and shared learning, which can lead to more effective and culturally appropriate solutions.
Helps build capacity and strengthen health systems.
Draws from and contributes back to global knowledge by engaging health innovators from diverse contexts who are tackling similar health challenges.
