Did you know that the federal Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs provide well over $2 billion of non-dilutive capital every year to small businesses developing high risk, high return technology-based products? Or that the money is targeted specifically to fund R&D activities to reduce the technical risk, thereby helping to facilitate access to follow-on funding?
Now that you're aware of these opportunities, the question becomes: how do you access them?
1313 Learns is partnering with the Small Business Development Center of Delaware's Dan Eliot to host a thoughtful discussion about accessing federal grants to support your research or startup. Join us in 1313 Innovation on Tuesday, March 21st from 10am-12:00pm for Daniel's presentation and come ready with your questions!
The workshop will cover:
The distinguishing features and technology areas addressed in different agency solicitations
Getting registered so you can submit a proposal
Preparing proposal components for maximum impact
How to approach commercialization planning
Navigating the submission process
and more
We will have coffee and a light breakfast provided and opportunity to network after the presentation.
