Sign Up for the 11th Biennial Hawaii SBIR Federal Funding Conference

 

This is a great opportunity to learn about the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs and to meet Federal program managers.  With some coaching, Hawaii small businesses have a one in four chance of winning an $80,000 to $100,000 Phase I award to investigate the technical and financial feasibility of their new technology or job creation idea.  If Phase I works out, they have a one in two chance of winning a $350,000 to $750,000 (or more) Phase II award to do prototyping and/or field trials of their innovation. 

 Much better odds than Las Vegas!  You give up no equity in your business and you do not have to pay the money back if the concept does not work out.

Below is a description of the conference and a link to conference information.  I have also posted general information on the SBIR and STTR programs on my website.

Hawaii SBIR & STTR Conference

November 16-20, 2009

Oahu, Maui, Hawaii Island

Funding for Early-stage Technologies and Innovations leading to Commercialization

SBIR has proven to be one of the most successful federal programs for technological advancement in
U.S. history, delivering more than 60,000 patents and hundreds of valuable innovations in agriculture,
defense, energy, health sciences, homeland security, space, transportation, and other fields.

The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer Research (STTR) programs

SBIR is a federal program that funds small businesses to develop high-risk innovations of critical need.
The U.S. SBIR is a three-phased program with awards usually up to $100,000 for developing a proof ofconcept in Phase I, and typically up to $750,000 for development work (often resulting in a prototype) in Phase II. Companies develop and market the SBIR product, attract outside investment and further commercialize in Phase III. Eleven federal agencies participate in the SBIR program: U.S. Departmentsof Agriculture; Commerce; Defense; Education; Energy; Health and Human Services; Homeland Security; Transportation; Environmental Protection Agency; NASA; and the National Science Foundation.

STTR is modeled on the SBIR program and stimulates technology transfer through cooperative research between small businesses and non-profit research institutions. UH researchers are encouraged to partner with small businesses to compete under the STTR program.
