Testimonials

Prior to working with BBCetc we submitted an STTR Phase I grant application…and wasn’t funded. For the resubmission, BBCetc was recommended and we used them to prepare a more polished and appropriate application – and we were funded. We then decided to try for Phase II and were funded again, with BBCetc’s help, but our next application failed when we thought we knew enough to get funded on our own. We have learned our lesson! No more STTR/SBIR applications without BBCetc!

President, INHERET

In response to a special situation from the NSF, we used BBC to guide our proposal and were able to get NSF funding for our new testing method for detecting intact COVID-19. We are grateful for the timely, specific, thoughtful, and adept guidance provided by BBC.

The staff at BBC skillfully guided us through the application process, and after we received awards from USDA they helped us with the grant administration. We doubt we would have received the funding without their assistance.

President, Applications Insight

When I started my company, I was seeking early stage funding but my technology was too risky for traditional investors. BBC has helped Creathadh Energies learn, understand and receive SBIR funding from NSF that is helping us bring our innovation to market. We have found their advice pointed, relevant, invaluable, and much better than the grant writing training I received as a post-doc.

The staff at BBC offer highly knowledgeable, responsive and effective guidance in what can be a dauntingly complex arena. They played a key role in helping us obtain multiple NIH awards.

Safesense has been working on novel smart electronic devices and systems using flexible hybrid electronics for the sports performance, defense and medical markets. Part of our funding strategy has been to seek non-dilutive SBIR/STTR funds. With the help of BBC staff, we were able to successfully obtain a DOD SBIR award that will help us commercialize our product.
