Pivot is an online funding database where researchers, faculty and research administrators can easily explore new avenues for funding, view funding opportunities uniquely matched to their scholar profile, collaborate with colleagues and manage the results of the process to build a funding strategy that supports both immediate and long-term funding needs.
Upcoming Information and Demonstration Sessions
Join us on an upcoming date below to learn how Pivot can save you time and effort in identifying the right funding opportunities for your research lines as well as identifying collaborators with the relevant expertise.

Internal Funding Opportunities
As of April 1, the Division of Sponsored Programs will no longer publish the Grant Bulletin or maintain its website. Research Administrators can add their unit's Internal Funding Opportunities into Pivot, allowing users to find both internal funding along with other external funding opportunities, all in the same tool. Please email vpr-rdo@uiowa.edu to inquire about posting internal funding.
