Frequently asked questions

How does MTEC fund medical technology development?

MTEC uses a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Army Medical Research and Development Command. It issues request-for-proposals (RFPs) to its member organizations, who then compete for contracts. Projects are funded by the Department of Defense, with MTEC serving as a managing entity.

Can for-profit companies join MTEC?

Yes—MTEC membership is open to for-profits, non-profits, academic institutions, and government entities. As of mid-2025, the consortium includes over 370 members, ranging from small med-tech startups to large defense contractors.

What medical technology areas does MTEC prioritize?

MTEC focuses on technologies relevant to military medicine: combat casualty care, infectious disease countermeasures, surgical procedures, diagnostics, and medical simulation. Recent solicitations have included point-of-care diagnostics, advanced wound care, and neural health monitoring.

Is MTEC a family office or investment firm?

No—MTEC is a nonprofit consortium established under a government cooperative agreement. Its structure is that of a granting entity and project manager for Department of Defense medical technology R&D, not an asset manager or family office.

How are MTEC's projects selected and managed?

Projects are driven by USAMRDC mission requirements. MTEC releases RFPs in designated focus areas; member organizations respond with proposals. Proposals are evaluated on technical merit, cost, and timeline, and awards are made through a competitive process.
