AISI Challenge Fund

Grant Description

The AISI Challenge Fund, run by the AI Security Institute within the UK’s Department for Science, Innovation and Technology, awards competitive grants of £50 000–£200 000 to academics and non-profits worldwide to advance research in AI safety & security (safeguards, control, alignment, societal resilience). It seeks to stimulate high-quality, novel projects that bridge the gap between pure research and operational deployment—enabling beneficiaries to conduct real-world model testing, produce peer-reviewed outputs, inform policy and strengthen international collaboration. By supporting interdisciplinary teams, the Fund fosters capacity-building, cultivates emerging talent and accelerates the translation of safe-AI innovations into public benefit.
