Weill Hall Room 226

The SBIR Workshop will bring current information and practical advice to faculty, students, and postdocs interested in diversifying their portfolio of research dollars coming in. Small and emerging knowledge based businesses will connect with resources available on campus and regionally. Participants will learn how the Small Business Innovation Research program differs from traditional NSF, NIH, or other agency funding and how it can help their pursuit of starting a company and funding research that has commercial potential. Hear success stories from companies involved in research partnerships with academic faculty. An overview of the latest program developments at the national level will be provided. Panel discussions will be focused on campus and regional resources as well as wrinkles you might encounter. A topical lunch will allow for further connections to resources.
