Commercializing University Research With Federal SBIR/STTR Funding

About this Event
Every year the federal government awards $4 billion for research and development to small businesses with innovative technologies. The SBIR/STTR program is a critical source of funding to help move research from the lab into the commercial sector. Join Aventurine and Leon Wolf, SBIR/STTR Specialist, for a 1-hour live webinar that will cover SBIR/STTR basics, available resources for assistance, Q&A and recent changes that provide additional funding for commercialization.
