9 Do You Qualify for SBIR/STTR Award? Company structure, ownership Organized, For- profit, U.S.-based business Ownership changing requirements Past: At least 51% U.S.- owned by individuals (this precluded companies majority owned by venture funds) To come soon: Agency-by-agency implementation allowing some companies with majority fund ownership. Check specifics of funding opportunity 500 employees or fewer including affiliates PI s primary employment with the small business At the time of award and for the duration of the project period STTR can have academic PI (but there must be 51% employee of business) Proposed work must occur in US Exceptionally difficult/impossible to overcome this 4/10/2013 9

15 Preparing the SBIR/STTR Proposal Identify proposal PI SBIR must be employed 51% by small business Proposal is technical Reviewers need evidence that PI will be good project leader for proposed activities Who will guide technical activities, decisions, manage technical staff? In my experience (NIH) Over-extended CEO sometimes receives criticism MBA-CEO without technical credentials often receives criticism Strong proposal will overcome this Consider STTR mechanism, where academic can be co-pi Intent to be with company throughout grant period Who will write proposal? Technical document 6-25pg research plan Budget Company must submit the proposal (not the university) Company must register in electronic submission systems 15
16 Check the Details - NIH SBIR and STTR Omnibus Solicitations Defines scope (broad), institutes (all), eligibility, deadlines (standard deadlines: Apr 5, Aug 5, Dec 5; <AIDS different>) Not all NIH Institutes will fund clinical trials through SBIR or STTR Omnibus Solicitations NO: NIAID, NINDS YES: NIMH, NCCAM Special FOA s for SBIR-funded Exploratory Clinical Trials /10/

18 Activities to Help Your Success Take advantage (or make) opportunities to talk with people in the relevant federal agency(s) Especially important for agencies that solicit applications for specific research topics Take advantage of opportunities to attend SBIR/STTR workshops Frequent reference to SOLICITATION when writing Format, etc MUST be correct Criteria for evaluation make information easy for reviewer to find, understand Plan ahead!
