Publisher's Synopsis
The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) / Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs provide grant funding to help companies commercialize transformative technologies. Companies that successfully receive Phase I awards are eligible to apply for Phase II grants that can generate over a million dollars to fund product development. This book provides a straightforward, user-friendly approach to preparing a Phase II application for the National Institutes of Health (NIH) SBIR/STTR programs. A 12-week strategy is presented for developing a strong Commercialization Plan, Research Plan, and Other Components that are required for a successful application. In addition, the Review and Award process, as well as post-award considerations, are described. The Eva Garland Consulting team provides deep expertise in developing competitive SBIR/STTR proposals, having successfully assisted clients who have collectively received hundreds of millions of dollars of SBIR/STTR funding.
