There is $2.5 billion in federal grant money available through the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs, and an upcoming “road show” will help researchers, innovators and entrepreneurs learn how they might make use of the funding opportunities.

The event is free and open to all, and attendees can expect to learn more about funding opportunities from specific federal agencies and how to win awards through those programs.
In addition to federal program overviews and presentations, some guests also will have the opportunity to meet one-on-one with program managers, where they can share their ideas and gain insights into the award process. Program managers from the USDA, NASA, NIH and the departments of the Navy and Air Force will all be on hand, to name a few.
The event is entirely free, but registration is required. Attendees will have the opportunity to schedule one-on-one meetings with specific program managers once they begin the registration process here.
Registration will be open until June 28, but the deadline to sign up for one-on-one meetings is June 15.
