From the meeting
At its September 10, 2026 meeting, CFO Nick Kozlov said UF had been studying models for the UF Venture Fund through UF Innovate. He described a hybrid approach using a UF-owned model and a third-party partner, and said the Board had approved $50M for the initiative. The office will return in December with a comprehensive recommendation for Board approval, so the fund structure is still being finalized.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
When will University Of Florida issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks University Of Florida's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.

Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account sends you the pre-RFPs that fit what you sell, with the AI brief and the decision makers for the top matches in each digest.
