The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency said this week that it’s giving $3 million to American small businesses that are addressing environmental and public health problems, and a Chicago startup is among the recipients.
Rheaply, a Chicago startup that specializes in recycling and sourcing unused items, was part of 30 companies receiving up to $100,000 in Phase I funding from the EPA, with the opportunity for another $400,000 in Phase II. The grants are in the form of Small Business Innovation Research funding.
