The Industry Discovery & Development Partnership (IDDP) Program from Breakthrough T1D provides funding and collaborative support to for-profit entities—such as biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and device companies—pursuing research projects that are closely aligned with Breakthrough T1D’s priority research areas in type 1 diabetes (T1D). The aim is to accelerate the discovery, development, and commercialization of therapeutics and devices that prevent, treat, or cure T1D by leveraging both commercial and scientific expertise. Projects should have a clear path toward product development with strong potential for impact on the T1D community.
