SBIR series continues

More than $1 billion will be awarded this year to small businesses developing innovative technologies under the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) or the Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs. Companies who win SBIR awards receive $75,000, $150,000 or even up to $750,000 in funding and research support.

WTC, through its Washington State Federal and State Technology Partnership (WaFAST) program, offers a series of breakfast meetings in Seattle to help small businesses access these federal funds.

Past meeting topics have included "The Nuts and Bolts of SBIR" and "Tips from SBIR Proposal Reviewers."

The next event in the series is:
  "SBIR and the National Institutes of Health"
April 3, 2003
7:30–9 a.m.
University of Washington campus, Faculty Center
