12 SBIR & STTR in Brief Case Studies Two Perspectives What We 15,000 FT FROM A COMPANY PERSPECTIVE FROM A UNIVERSITY PERSPECTIVE IDA-STPI studied NSF's role in 3D Printing (along with leadership from NASA, DOD, etc...) shows that some of most crucial parts of the technology was financed in its earliest stages as the result of various critical funding via the SBIR/STTR program. Z-Corporation which emanated out of Massachusetts Institute of Technology labs and was recently acquired by 3D Systems, was one of the first 3D Printing companies to enter the market in1994 and they too received initial financing from NSF through various research financing opportunities including the SBIR/STTR program. A 2012 Tibbetts Award Winning company emanating from upstate NY, which was founded by two undergraduate students during a Product Design Innovation class at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, who came up with the idea to use mushrooms as the binding material for composite fabrication of biodegradable materials which in turn offer a promising solution to potentially eliminate petrol-based composites. They received some of their earliest funding via EPA and NSF SBIR Grants. Alcomed Inc. which derives its technology from University of Kentucky research has a promising antidote solution towards developing intranasal naloxone for opioid overdosing. This approach would markedly reduce the risks of contracting hepatitis or HIV by EMS first responders. Phase 1: $239, & Phase 2: $1,219, both from HHS-NIH The State of Kentucky is doubling down via a public-private partnership model, The Kentucky Science and Technology Corporation. Additionally, the Kentucky SBIR/STTR Matching Funds Program is funded by the Cabinet for Economic Development and provides matching funds of up to $150,000 for Phase I and up to $500,000 for Phase II. These funds are used for new and additional work tasks that are complementary to existing Federal SBIR/STTR Awards
