It is called as Term Sheet and not seed funding agreement, its better your write your own term sheet based on your roadmap and your financial plan rather than looking for others

There is a lot of international collaboration in space projects. There are 15 countries working together to operate the International Space Station (ISS). There are advantages to collaboration. It does bring in different perspectives. It does bring in new skills and knowledge. It can help by sharing the costs. It can help by ensuring commitment because it's harder to walk away from a project that is part of an international treaty.But, it is hard, too. Each group has their own preferred ways of working. Each group is beholden to its own bureaucracies. Honestly, it can be a real pain in the ass.There has to be real value in doing it. Partners have to be chosen because they bring something unique and valuable to the table.There are many opportunities for nations around the world to work together to explore outer space.Besides the ISS, NASA also works with other nations to explore beyond low Earth orbit. The NASA Solar System Exploration Research Virtual Institute (SSERVI) has an international partnerships program that provides opportunities for collaboration to researchers around the world. Those partnerships can be Affiliate (non-governmental institutions) or Associate (government-to-government).NASA has over 700 active International Space Act Agreements. Here is just a small sample:AlgeriaAlgeria is a participant in the AERONET project to monitor aerosols.ArgentinaThe Aquarius/SAC-D satellite studies ocean salinity. It is a partnership between NASA and the Argentine space agency, along with Brazil, Canada, France, and Italy.ArmeniaNASA has an agreement with Armenia involving cooperation on space geodetic researchBelgiumNASA has an agreement with Belgium for Belgium to perform the alignment, testing, calibration, and evaluation of the Far Ultra Violet (FUV) spectrographic imager for the ICON (Ionospheric Connection Explorer) mission.BrazilAn agreement for participation in the Ozone Cooperation Mission.ChileNASA has an agreement for researchers from the University of Chile to collaborate with NASA researchers at the Goddard Space Flight Center to study space weather.Czech RepublicNASA has an agreement to allow the Czech Geological Survey in Prague to undertake scientific investigations using some of NASA’s lunar samples.GermanyGermany is an Associate member of SSERVI. NASA and the German Aerospace Center (DLR) have collaborated on several missions, including the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO).GreeceNASA has a cooperative agreement with Greece via the Institute of Ionosphere and Space Science of the National Observatory of Athens. The agreement includes participation of Greek researchers in the Energetic Particles and Ion Composition (EPIC) experiment of the Geotail mission.IrelandNASA has an agreement with the University of Dublin that loans the university some of NASA’s lunar samples for study.JordanNASA has an international internship program to provide opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students from Jordan to work alongside NASA researchers in the US.IndiaNASA and the Planetary and Exploration Program (PLANEX) Physical Research Laboratory in Ahmedabad, India have an agreement that allows researchers there to study meteorites recovered by NASA from the Antarctic. NASA and ISRO have an agreement to collaborate on the NISAR mission to use synthetic aperture radar to study ice sheet and land surface changes on Earth.IsraelIn 2010, NASA and the Israel Space Agency signed an agreement making the Israel Network for Lunar Science and Exploration (INLSE) an affiliate partner with the NASA Lunar Science Institute.LithuaniaNASA has an international internship program to provide opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students from Lithuania to work alongside NASA researchers in the US.MexicoNASA has an international internship program to provide opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students from Mexico to work alongside NASA researchers in the US.NamibiaNamibia is a participant in the AERONET project to monitor aerosols.The NetherlandsThe Netherlands is an Affiliate member of SSERVI.New ZealandNASA has an agreement with the University of Auckland that allows researchers there to study meteorites recovered by NASA from the Antarctic.NigeriaAn agreement between NASA and the Nigerian National Space Research and Development Agency (NASDRA) for Cooperation on Geo-Hazards ResearchNorwayNASA and Robotic Drilling Systems, AS, of Norway, to participate in the development of robotic drilling systems for space use.Republic of Trinidad and TobagoNASA has an international internship program that works with Trinidad and Tobago’s National Institute of Higher Education, Research, Science and Technology (NIHERST) to provide opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students from Trinidad and Tobago to work alongside NASA researchers in the US.Saudi ArabiaIn 2009, NASA signed an agreement for NASA’s Lunar Science Institute to collaborate with Saudi Arabia’s King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology (KACST) on lunar and asteroid science research.South KoreaIn 2008, NASA signed an agreement for NASA’s Ames Research Center to work with South Korea’s Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) to explore collaboration on small satellite research and development.TaiwanNASA has an agreement with the Institute of Earth Sciences in Taipei that allows researchers there to study meteorites recovered by NASA from the Antarctic.Everything I’ve mentioned, so far, is from the perspective of NASA working with other countries. The other major space agencies (RSA, JAXA, ESA, CSA) also have their own international partnerships with countries around the world. There is also the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (OOSA) promotes international cooperation in the peaceful uses of outer space and assisting developing countries in using space science and technology. More than 50 countries have participated in its efforts.There is also a document produced by the major space agencies called the Global Exploration Roadmap that establishes a vision for future cooperation in the exploration of space.

Yes, there are many opportunities for nations around the world to work together to explore outer space.The most visible is of course the International Space Station (ISS). Fifteen countries work together to operate that facility. While there are certainly “dominant nations” such as America and Russia involved in that project, smaller nations also are involved. In September of 2015, the tiny country of Denmark will send their first astronaut (Andreas Mogensen) to the International Space Station. In addition to the fifteen partner nations, other nations can also be involved in the ISS through providing services or participating in experiments via the Center for the Advancement of Science in Space (CASIS).NASA also works with other nations to explore beyond low Earth orbit.
