Why would a Small Business Want toParticipate in the SBIR/STTR Program ? Largest source early stage R&D funds for SmallBusiness – Fed wide 2.5B Navy 325M No dilution of ownership; owners retain control andretains data rights for 4 years or more (5 for DoD) Follow-on awards are contracted non-competitively Strong commercialization support No repayment is required– Government recoupment is through the tax system Certification effect draws in additional investment– Signal to private investors of technological validity andcommercial promise of the innovation
SBIR’s Advantages for Government A low-cost technological probe– Enables government to explore more cheaply ideasthat may hold promise– Identifies dead-ends before substantial investments aremade Quick reaction capability– Solicitations topics can respond rapidly to urgentnational needs– Anthrax attacks led NIH to seek and get innovative biodefense technologies Diversifies the Government Supplier-base– Brings in competition, low-cost solutions, newapproaches to address mission needs
