How to Commercialize Early-Stage Tech with the DOE

Are you an innovator with an early-stage technology that has commercial potential or you're already applying for the DOE SBIR/STTR programs? This is for you. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs are U.S. Government programs, intended to help certain small businesses conduct R&D. At DOE, funding takes the form of grants. Projects must have the potential for commercialization and meet specific DOE mission-specific R&D needs. On this webinar we discuss what the DOE SBIR/STTR provides early-stage, nondilutive R&D funding for small businesses to develop their technology and commercialize it. Come learn about the surprising breadth of topics funded by DOE SBIR/STTR! Additionally, the DOE Program Managers will discuss how to access DOE SBIR/STTR application assistance programs, the emphasis placed on commercialization and the power of partnering. The DOE Office of SBIR/STTR Programs speakers will be Dr. Eileen Chant, Outreach Program Manager and Dr. Carol Rabke, Tech-to-Market (T2M) Advisor.
