These
SBIR gateway sites provide links to SBIR and
STTR information. Additional information about
individual agencies is available below.
This page
provides links to many sites where SBIR and
STTR program information can be found.
It is important to understand the purpose
of the programs in general and why the federal
government has continuously funded SBIR since
1983 and STTR since 1992.
SBIR is a
highly competitive program that encourages
small business to explore their technological
potential and provides the incentive to profit
from its commercialization. By including qualified
small businesses in the nation's R&D arena,
high-tech innovation is stimulated and the
United States gains entrepreneurial
spirit as it meets its specific research and
development needs.
Since its
enactment in 1982, as part of the Small Business
Innovation Development Act, SBIR has helped
thousands of small businesses to compete for
federal research and development awards. Their
contributions have enhanced the nation's defense,
protected our environment, advanced health
care, and improved our ability to manage information
and manipulate data.

Individual
Agency Sites for SBIR and STTR
The federal
SBIR program was created in 1982 to stimulate
technological innovation, use small business
to meet federal R&D needs, and increase
private sector commercialization derived from
federal R&D. The federal STTR Program,
established in 1992, is modeled on the SBIR
program and similar objectives. It also serves
to encourage technology transfer through cooperative
research between small business concerns and
non-profit research institutions. Commercialization
of SBIR and STTR technology is required, however,
specific requirements vary by agency.
Individual
SBIR and STTR agency sites are found under
Federal Agency Links at www.sbir.gov.
