The SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research) program helps small businesses engage in R&D with potential for commercialization. Melissa Wong and Rachael Sack, SBIR representatives from the Volpe Center, will provide an overview of the SBIR program, including information on the program’s purpose, eligibility, sources of funding, and ideas on what is necessary for a successful application.

The seminar is designed to provide enough information to determine if the program is right for you and if you would like to seriously pursue SBIR proposal development.

This session is part of the "Intellectual Property Speaker Series" co-sponsored by the Technology Licensing Office and MIT Libraries. Lunch will be provided to attendees of the Intellectual Property Speaker Series events. Please register for the seminar and lunch.

FREE SWAG!

We will also be giving away some branded MIT Libraries and Technology Licensing Office swag to participants who attend any 6 sessions from this series, so please check out our other sessions! http://mit_tlo.eventbrite.com
