Business for Federal Research Funding (BFRF) is a national coalition of Chambers of Commerce that advocates for maintaining and increasing research funding in the federal budget and beyond.

Research funding impacts businesses, government, academia, and private citizens across the country. Leading to major breakthroughs in innovation, new technologies, life-saving medical treatments, and millions of jobs, research investments are key to advancing our economy and global competitiveness. By continuing to invest in research and development funding, our country will continue to lead the world in science, medicine, and innovation. 

With research funding under threat, the BFRF coalition represents a united voice of the nation’s business community. The BFRF coalition will engage members of Congress and the Administration to advocate for research funding that saves lives and strengthens our nation’s economy.
