About Open Technology Fund

Open Technology Fund, a Washington DC–based tax-exempt nonprofit organization, receives federal grant funding from the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM) to deliver international broadcasting and multimedia services focused on promoting media freedom and democratic values in strategically important regions, particularly the Middle East. All seven of the organization's federal awards since 2019 are project grants under CFDA 90.500 (International Broadcasting Independent Grantee Organizations program), with the organization operating as a prime recipient rather than a subgrantee or contractor.

Open Technology Fund's customer base is entirely concentrated within a single federal agency. USAGM accounts for 100% of recent awards across the award portfolio, with the combined obligated value reaching $295.8 million. The organization's work centers on planning and operational expenses related to international broadcasting in the Middle East, including the development and delivery of multimedia communication services across traditional broadcasting, digital platforms, podcasts, and video reports designed to provide objective, balanced information to audiences in regions with limited press freedoms.

The largest single award on record is a $61.4 million project grant from USAGM dated July 21, 2022, for the same international broadcasting program. More recent grants include awards dated May 6, 2024, February 3, 2023, and January 21, 2025, along with an October 1, 2025 award of $10.0 million covering the period through September 30, 2026. Two awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months and face recompete exposure in that window. Award volume has remained modest and stable—one award per year through 2024, then two in 2025—reflecting the specialized nature of the grant program and the organization's narrow customer agency concentration.
