Background of SBIR/STTR
The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) was established in 1982.
Goals: 4 "societal objectives":
- (1) to stimulate technological innovation;
- (2) to increase private sector commercialization of innovations;
- (3) to use small business to meet federal research and development needs; and
- (4) to foster and encourage participation by minority and disadvantaged persons in technological innovation
11 federal agencies meet requirements for providing SBIR funding (see funding structure)
- Participating agencies:
- Department of Agriculture
- Department of Commerce - National Institute of Standards and Technology
- National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
- Department of Defense
- Department of Education
- Department of Energy
- Department of Health and Human Services
- Department of Homeland Security
- Department of Transportation
- Environmental Protection Agency
- National Aeronautics and Space Administration
- National Science Foundation
The Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) program was established in 1992. Goal: build on SBIR expansion of public/private sector partnerships between small businesses and nonprofit U.S. research institutions 5 federal agencies meet requirements for providing STTR funding (see funding structure) Participating agencies:
- Department of Defense
- Department of Energy
- Department of Health and Human Services
- National Aeronautics and Space Administration
- National Science Foundation
Difference between SBIR and STTR: STTR program require company to partner with research institution awarded a minimum of 30% of the total grant funds
Funding Structure
SBIR: Requires agencies with extramural R&D budget of >$100 million (extramural defined as funding provided to research institutions [outside NIH]) Funding: % of FY budget 2.5% 2012 increased 0.1% until 3.2% in 2017 (current level = 3.2% FY2017)
STTR: agencies exceeding $1billion must set aside 0.3% extramural budget
Eligibility: Must operate in US 500 or fewer employees Ownership structure: more than 50% by one or more indiv. Who are US citizens (Or owned by another business who meets above criteria) Newer provision: majority owned by multiple VC's hedge funds, equity funds
