4 SBIR: Set-aside program for small business concerns to engage in federal R&D -- with potential for commercialization. STTR: Set-aside program to facilitate cooperative R&D between small business concerns and U.S. research institutions -- with potential for commercialization. Program Descriptions

5 The SBIR/STTR Program Small Business Innovation Development Act of 1982 Congress designated 4 major goals Stimulate technological innovation in the private sector Use small business to meet federal R&D needs Foster and encourage participation by minorities and disadvantaged persons in technological innovation Increase private-sector commercialization innovations derived from federal R&D

7 Organized for- profit U.S. business At least 51% U.S.-owned and independently operated Small Business located in the U.S. P.I.’s primary employment with small business during project 500 or fewer employees SBIR Program Eligibility Checkpoints

8 Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Three-phase program for cooperative between small business and either university or non-profit research institution, includes FFRDCs Minimum Small Business effort = 40%; Minimum University or Non-Profit effort = 30% and remaining 30% divided by SB and University/Non-Profit or other subcontracts/consultants Small business and research institution MUST have an intellectual property agreement in place prior to a Phase I award, but not essential at time of proposal submission. Ongoing dialogue should be evident. Small business is the grantee or prime contractor..30% set aside for 2004

9 NSF’s Vision innovation…* Enabling the Nation’s future through discovery, learning, and innovation…* *Joe Bordogna, Deputy Director of the National Science Foundation

10 Primary Objective NSF SBIR/STTR Program To increase the incentive and opportunity for small firms to undertake cutting-edge, high risk, high quality scientific, engineering, or science/engineering education research that would have a high potential economic payoff if the research is successful.
