The FY2027 President's Budget requests — for Innovation Fund Grants, within Commerce's National Telecommunications and Information Administration account.
Commerce discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Commerce's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
The Public Wireless Supply Chain Innovation Fund is a ten-year program that will advance the development and deployment of exportable U.S.-based AI technology for a trusted 6G stack through grants awarded on a competitive basis. Base Program The NTIA will award up to a total of $573 million in grants under the program, following a rescission of $850 million pursuant to the WFTC Act. Grant awardees may include private sector, trade groups, civil society, non-profits, and academia to facilitate the development and deployment of exportable, open, secure and interoperable AI-native Radio Access Networks (RAN).
