SBIR/STTR Workshop: Navigating HHS & NIH Funding

Are you an entrepreneur or innovator looking to tap into federal funding for your health-related technology or research? The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs offer billions in non-dilutive funding each year, but navigating the process—especially with agencies like the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH)—can be challenging.

Join us for this interactive workshop where we’ll break down:

• How HHS and NIH approach SBIR/STTR funding and how they differ from other agencies

• The unique timelines and irregular solicitation schedules for these agencies

• Key strategies for identifying opportunities and positioning your proposal

• What to watch for when planning ahead for future solicitations

Whether you’re just getting started or refining your approach, this session will give you the insights you need to compete for HHS and NIH SBIR/STTR awards.

Who Should Attend:

• Startup founders and entrepreneurs in the bioscience, medtech, and health innovation sectors

• Researchers or small business teams exploring SBIR/STTR funding

• Economic development or business support professionals assisting small businesses

This session is designed to be highly practical and concise. Even though no major solicitations are currently open, we’ll highlight upcoming opportunities and strategies you can use to prepare.

• Free to attend (in person or virtually)
