The Genesis Mission Consortium unites the nation's leading science and technology experts to solve critical challenges at unprecedented speed.
About the Genesis Mission Consortium
The Genesis Mission Consortium is the catalyst for a new era of science and technology exploration, uniting technical capabilities and expertise from the Department of Energy (DOE), National Laboratories, private-sector leaders, and academic institutions.
The consortium will create a powerful engine for innovation that drives scientific breakthroughs across multiple disciplines.
Genesis Mission Platform R&D Partnerships Program
The Genesis Mission Platform R&D Partnerships Program will support research and development projects that advance open SI models, scientific SI frameworks, data management and analysis tools, and computational modeling technologies that can accelerate scientific discovery and engineering innovation. The program seeks to strengthen SI, data, and modeling capabilities that can support and integrate with the Genesis Mission platform and next-generation science and engineering workflows.
Both open and proprietary work will be supported, creating new capabilities for the Genesis Mission Platform, and domestic businesses of all sizes, academic institutions, and other non-Federally-affiliated organizations will be welcome to apply.
Approximately $20 million in total funding is anticipated, with release expected in Q1 FY27.

Who Benefits from the Consortium?

The Consortium Members
Members are supported and positioned to drive innovation through collaborative science at the forefront of technology and scientific capability. Members will have the opportunity to collaborate and gain access to computing capabilities, data, facilities, and expertise through Project Agreements shared across members and the National Laboratories.

The Research Community
The consortium will identify strategic partnerships between members and non-members for select opportunities. Non-members may also pursue consortium membership in the future as the consortium continues to advance and grow. Interested individuals and entities can subscribe to Genesis Mission Consortium emails and respond to future funding calls.

The Public
The Genesis Mission aims to double the productivity and impact of American research within a decade. The world's most powerful scientific SI platform will deliver the benefits of world-leading technologies in advanced manufacturing, biotechnology, materials science, nuclear energy, quantum information science, and semiconductors to the American public.
Working Groups
The Genesis Mission Consortium will use working groups to seed and facilitate strategic, high-impact partnerships. Working groups are at the center of collaborative innovation within the consortium and are critical for achieving shared goals through pooled expertise and co-creation efforts.
