Connect directly with over $4B in early stage funding. Learn to compete effectively for those resources; and network with leadership representing the nation’s largest seed fund.

The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs are the nation’s largest source of early stage, high risk research and development funding for small businesses. These programs provide more than $4 billion annually in competitive awards, enabling entrepreneurs to develop new technologies and ultimately facilitate the commercialization of innovation. Attendees will have the opportunity to meet with and hear from SBIR/STTR leaders and experts, as they learn how to submit more competitive proposals and leverage available resources.

Visit the SBIR/STTR Pavilion to meet with AFWERX and SpaceWERX representatives during the event!
