Reach Power, Inc. — Department of Defense SBIR Phase I: X224-OCSO1
Reach Power, Inc. — SBIR Phase I award from Department of Defense.
Phase I SBIR feasibility signal
- Phase I awards fund proof-of-concept work. For capture teams, they mark early interest from Department of Defense in a technical approach.
- Watch for Phase II follow-ons from the same firm/topic family — that conversion path is where budgets and transition pressure rise.
- Obligated amount $73,935. Cross-check similar awards in the same agency and technology tags for going-rate context.

Description
Reach Labs (Reach) is the industry technology leader in Wireless Power Transfer (WPT). Reach’s WPT technology provides wireless power-at-a-distance and does for electric power what Wi-Fi did for data. Reach’s wireless power system is composed of power transmitters, power receivers, and management software. The system is built on state-of-the-art, patented technology, including high-efficiency power converters, network optimization algorithms, and adaptive electromagnetic surfaces. This study will focus on the feasibility of adapting and hardening Reach’s 24 GHz MMIC chip design against particle radiation, high-energy electromagnetic radiation, and large temperature variances found in space to significantly improve resilience of energy delivery and enabling space-based WPT.
