The Federal SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research) Program Provides R&D funding to small businesses.

The program helps small businesses engage in R&D with potential for commercialization.

Dan Lilly (SBIR Advisor) will provide an overview of the SBIR program, including information on the program’s purpose, eligibility and sources of funding and ideas of what is necessary to succeed.

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.

Lunch will be served between 11:30 - 12:30 PM, and will be followed by this session.

This session is part of the Intellectual Property Lunch and Learn Series co-sponsored by the MIT Libraries and the Technology Licensing Office.
