Description

Businesses in the Evansville region are invited to take part in a free workshop on Wednesday, May 11, from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. (Central time) to learn more about how to successfully vie for federal funds that can help their company growand compete. The Indiana Procurement and Technical Assistance Center (PTAC), IN3 (Indiana Innovation Institute) and NavalX Midwest Tech Bridge are providing hands-on assistance to qualifying small businesses.

During the session, which is part of a statewide series, the organizations will offer guidance on how to take advantage of the federal Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Technology Transfer (SBIR/STTR) programs. The SBIR and STTR programs both offer qualifying small businesses federal funding opportunities with the goals of stimulating technological innovation, engaging small businesses to meet federal research and development needs, fostering and encouraging participation in innovation and entrepreneurship bysocially and economically disadvantaged small businesses, and increasing private sector commercialization of innovations derived from federal R&D funding.
