Congress established the Small
Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer
(STTR) Programs to provide small businesses and research institutions with
opportunities to participate in government-sponsored research and development.
The goals of the SBIR and STTR
programs are: (1) stimulate technological innovation, (2) increase small
business participation in federal R&D, (3) increase private sector
commercialization of technology developed through federal R&D, and (4)
foster and encourage participation in federal R&D by businesses that
are owned by women and socially and economically disadvantaged individuals.
The STTR Program has the additional goal of encouraging small companies and
researchers at academic institutions and non-profit research institutions
to work together to transition emerging technical ideas from the laboratory
to the marketplace.
