In this competitive age, a financial boost from a federal agency can be just what a company needs to take its technology to the next level with the goal of eventually commercializing it.

 

Come learn how! 

 

The federal Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program and its parallel Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Program provide more than $2 billion a year to small companies that are developing leading-edge technologies of interest to federal agencies.  These programs provide companies with seed capital of up to $850,000 to develop technologies that can lead to commercial products.

 

Learn to write effective SBIR/STTR proposals.  Attend one of the following SBIR/STTR Workshops held around Georgia.
