ABC’s of SBIR/STTR: Program Goals, Eligibility: Is it for you?

July 21, 2020 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm EDT

The government’s Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs make over $3 billion in high-risk, non-dilutive capital available to innovative small companies annually. The process is complex with a steep learning curve, but the impact of receiving $millions in non-dilutive funding is worth the effort.  In this session you’ll learn if your technology company eligible for non-dilutive federal funding through the government’s SBIR/STTR program.
We’ll review:

  • What technologies the SBIR/STTR programs fund
  • Which federal agencies participate
  • How the money can be used
  • How to know if you’re eligible and much more!
