About this file

This file is an email exchange between an IBM representative and the Department of State regarding the Technology Gateway Program (TECHGATE) cooperative agreement. The email specifically seeks clarification on the allowability of subgrantees under the funding opportunity, with the government confirming that subgrantees are permissible for both discrete scopes of work and long-term staffing. The TECHGATE program, assigned to CFDA Number 19.665 under Cyberspace and Digital Policy, is designed to foster large-scale cyber and digital technology knowledge transfer to eligible foreign governments, supporting U.S. foreign policy and national security objectives through technology procurement and implementation assistance. The initiative emphasizes capacity building, economic sustainability, and structured processes to help recipient countries develop skills in technology requirements identification, procurement, logistics, deployment, and configuration.
