Event: Effective Proposal Writing for the Department of Defense Small Business Innovation Research Program and an overview of SBIR/STTR
Presenter: Becky Aistrup, BBC Entrepreneurial Training & Consulting
Description:
This agency specific seminar/workshop presents essential information for crafting a competitive SBIR/STTR proposal that meets the requirements of the Department of Defense. It provides detailed instruction on the ins & outs of preparing a proposal, including both technical and commercialization plans, and navigating the often complicated submission process. The submission of proposals to many other agencies is similar, however, so this program will benefit many innovative, high technology companies.
1st Session (Free, 8:30am-10:30am): We begin with an overview of the Small Business Innovation Research Program (SBIR) and the similar, Small Business Technology Transfer Program (STTR). These programs provide over $3.3 Billion each year for innovations that meet the needs of eleven federal agencies.
2nd Session ($25.00, 11:00am-4:30pm):During the rest of the day effective proposal writing is discussed in detail.
Please note that the $25 registration fee covers refreshment breaks, but not lunch.
By attending both sessions you will obtain:
Target Audience: Technology-based entrepreneurs and small companies seeking funding for R&D with plans to submit SBIR/STTR proposals within the next 12 months are the prime beneficiaries. The program will also be of use to representatives of defense-related companies, as well as to representatives of other companies who wish to obtain expert insight into how effective proposals are written for other agencies.
