Background

Evatran was one of only three recipients in the first round of the Tobacco Commission’s Research and Development Grant program.  The State developed the Grant Program after it determined that applied research with significant commercialization potential in the tobacco-dependent region is a key element of revitalization and decided to provide grant funding to governmental or non-profit entities working with private partners to conduct research. The award for $1.25M was approved on 4/29/2010 (click here for more information).
