Cartier Women's Initiative

Cartier Science & Technology Pioneer Award

The Cartier Science & Technology Pioneer Award recognizes women-led, impact-driven deep tech startups built around protected or hard-to-reproduce scientific or technological advances. The official page lists $100,000, $60,000, and $30,000 grants for the top three awardees. Applications for the 2027 edition are closed, so GrantTrek tracks it as a forecasted R&D/tech opportunity.

Verify this opportunity with the official funder before applying. GrantTrek summarizes and organizes grant information but does not provide legal, tax, or funding guarantees.
