SBIR/STTR
Program Information |
|
The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small
Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Programs provide an opportunity
for small, high technology companies and research institutions (RI)
to participate in Government sponsored research and development
(R&D) efforts in key technology areas.
If you are a small business concern with 500 or fewer employees,
or a non-profit RI, such as a university or a research laboratory
with ties to an SBC, then NASA encourages you to learn more about
these programs and significant sources of seed funding for the development
of your innovations. The SBIR Phase 1 contracts last for 6 months
with a maximum funding of $100,000, and Phase 2 contracts last for
24 months with a maximum funding of $600,000. The STTR Phase 1 contracts
last for 12 months with a maximum funding of $100,000, and Phase
2 contracts last for 24 months with the maximum contract value of
$600,000.
Historically, the ratio of the number of Phase 1 proposals to awards
for SBIR is 7:1 and for STTR is 5:1. About 40 percent of the completed
Phase 1 projects receive funding for Phase 2 development.
