Topic: DEFTECH SBIR/STTR Checklist Overview
Guest Speaker: Jim Hargrove, NC DEFTECH Strategic Consultant
Description: The North Carolina Defense Technology Transition Office (DEFTECH) is excited to release the Checklist and Procedures for businesses considering Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Programs.
North Carolina is the “Frontline of the Future,” supporting the Nation’s defense and homeland security to provide technological overmatch in a changing joint and multi-domain operational environment.
The PURPOSE of this document is to provide a quick “one-stop” reference for companies considering pursuing SBIRs or STTRs, who are unfamiliar with the requirements and how to get started.
This document is only a guide; formal documentation and instructions are developed, distributed, and maintained by the United States Small Business Administration (SBA) and SBIR/STTR participating Federal Agencies.
Show up early at 0800 for the DEFTECH Early Bird or at the 0830 Opps Update to join the DEFTECH Team as we review current federal technology opportunities.
