How the SBIR & STTR Program can Benefit Small Innovative Companies

The Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) and Small Technology Transfer Innovation Research (STTR) programs can be beneficial in providing earlystage R&D funding to small innovative companies across industries and technology areas. With the aim of drawing innovative solutions from small companies by funding feasibility analysis through prototype demonstration, the federal government aims to commercialize technology that will not only benefit government agencies but the public as a whole.

This course will provide an overview of the SBIR/STTR program, the phases, current trends, pitfalls, and best practices.
