The SBIR Program funds U.S.-owned firms with 500 or fewer employees to conduct cutting-edge, innovative R&D that addresses the government's mission objectives while also promising commercial payoffs in new products.
The Program funds high-risk projects at the earliest stages of development, typically before companies can attract venture capital. Terms are extremely favorable, and the small business partner keeps the rights to
their intellectual property such as patents. Each project may be awarded up to $850,000 over a 2-1/2 year period.
Managers from SBIR-sponsoring agencies -- including the Department of Defense, and the National Science Foundation, and NASA -- will be on hand to discuss their programs and funding opportunities, as will many large firms looking for partners and subcontractors. Seminars will offer practical advice on such issues ranging from preparing proposals and raising capital to developing a business plan and protecting intellectual property.
