Funding Request Process

Registration & Application

Funding requests must be submitted online through the Genentech Funding System, which can be accessed using the apply for funding button to the right
Before you can make a funding request on behalf of an organization using the Genentech Request System, you must register yourself as a user (see New User Registration Tip Sheet)
Completed funding request must be submitted at least 60 days before the start date of an activity
All organizations register using the same process and require basic information so Genentech can determine the proper type of funding
After submitting your basic information, you will be asked a series of questions to ascertain the correct type of funding. Based on your answers, you will be directed to an application specific to your funding type
Once a request is submitted, you will receive a confirmation email

Review process can take up to 60 calendar days and sometimes more depending on the additional information we may require for decision making
If an application is incomplete or funding type does not match the original request a Request for Information (RFI) will be sent to the requestor
All requests are reviewed for compliance to Genentech's policies for grant funding

Decision on funding requests are determined after a full review and evaluation of the funding request application and related documents
You will receive an email communication regarding the decision
If you have any questions regarding the decision, please contact us here.

If a funding request is approved, an electronic Letter of Agreement (LOA) with the terms and conditions of the funding will be sent to all relevant parties
The LOA must be electronically signed and accepted by the authorized signer
You will receive the funding via check or electronic payment after the acceptance of the LOA
Activity monitoring, evaluation and reconciliation is required for particular funding types
