Mayo Clinic Innovation Exchange Event
Overview of U.S. Government SBIR and STTR Funding Programs
Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs are one of the largest sources of early-stage capital for technology commercialization in the United States. These programs allow U.S.-owned and operated small businesses to engage in federal research and development that has a strong potential for commercialization.

Attend this event for an overview and critical differences of the programs, grant writing resources, preparation tips, and steps to create a quality proposal.
