PIVOT Program

The funding landscape
has changed.
Your strategy should too.

For universities, research institutions, foundations, and nonprofits navigating NIH cuts, indirect cost battles, and the new reality of diversified funding.

PIVOT services

Six ways OniX helps
institutions adapt

Funding landscape audit

Map your current grant dependencies, identify concentration risk (NIH, single-agency exposure), and model alternative funding scenarios — foundations, industry, EU Horizon, philanthropy, and patient organizations.

2

Industry bridge strategy

Identify which of your faculty's research has industry relevance. Build a structured approach to sponsored research agreements, licensing, and pharma/biotech consortium deals. We broker the introductions.

3

Investigator scouting (for foundations)

For rare and other disease foundations: identify your next generation of grant recipients from the global emerging researcher pool. Portfolio gap analysis, disease area white space mapping, and field landscape reports.

4

Revenue diversification playbook

Custom roadmap: contract research, data licensing, patient registry monetization, professional education, conference IP. Benchmarked against 20+ peer institutions globally.

5

International grant access

Navigate non-NIH funding: EU Horizon, ERC Starting/Consolidator grants, UKRI/MRC, DFG, JSPS/AMED. Identify collaborator networks and consortium positions for US and non-EU institutions.

6

Strategic narrative & positioning

Reframe your institution's research identity for industry and foundation audiences. One-pagers, pitch materials, and BD communications for sponsored research meetings and foundation boards.
