April 25, 2019 @ 8:30 am - 3:00 pm EDT
The Federal SBIR/STTR programs award over $3 billion in high-risk R&D funding annually to qualified small businesses. The process is complex with a steep learning curve, but the impact of receiving $millions in non-dilutive funding is worth the effort. Join serial SBIR awardee, Jerry Hollister, of the SBIR/STTR consulting firm, BBCetc, and get step-by-step instruction on preparing a competitive proposal for the National Science Foundation (NSF).
What you’ll come away with:
- SBIR/STTR basics such as eligibility, the differences between SBIR and STTR, how the money can be used, the differences between granting and contracting agencies, etc.
- NSF’s program objectives, what and who it funds
- How to plan your project
- Preparing the components of your proposal, including budgets development and commercialization planning
- Common problems and pitfalls and how to avoid them
- Navigating the submission process and what to expect
