This two-part webinar explores the basis and requirements of Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs and the ways to leverage intellectual property protections including the soon-to-be-released new Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR).
In the first webinar we will delve into the key components of SBIR, emphasizing the eligibility criteria, application process, and the pivotal role played by government agencies in supporting innovative ventures. Furthermore, the presentation addresses the potential obstacles and misconceptions surrounding SBIR participation, offering insights into how businesses can navigate these challenges effectively. Practical tips and best practices are provided to assist entrepreneurs in maximizing their chances of success within the SBIR framework.
In the second webinar, we will explore the significance of intellectual property protection within the SBIR/STTR context, emphasizing the importance of safeguarding innovation and ensuring fair treatment for small businesses during negotiations to empower businesses to make informed decisions about their intellectual assets. We will also review the new FAR regulations to finally incorporate the SBIR/STTR program, which are scheduled to be finalized in the next few months.
