Description

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science & Technology Directorate’s Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program provides small businesses with a powerful pathway to develop innovative technologies that address homeland security challenges while advancing commercial growth opportunities. GTSC’s look at the SBIR program will provide a high-level overview of the DHS S&T SBIR program, including how it works, when companies should consider using it, and the value it can bring to emerging technologies and mission-focused innovation.

The session will explore how SBIR supports:

• The transition of ideas from concept to prototype through phased; non-dilutive funding opportunities designed to accelerate research, development, and commercialization;
