SBIR Ignite Release Party Registration Wed Jul 13 2022 at 6 00 PM EventbritePlease join us for the release party of NASA’s SBIR Ignite solicitation on July 13 at 6 p.m. EDT. During the interactive webinar, you’ll learn more about SBIR Ignite, a new funding opportunity for product-driven, commercialization-focused firms and the technology challenges NASA is looking to solve. NASA SBIR Ignite offers a simple and streamlined path to receiving up to $1 million in funding through Phase 1 and 2 awards and more through Post Phase II opportunities.

SBIR Ignite is part of NASA’s SBIR/STTR program, which the federal government created to strengthen the role of innovative small businesses in federally-funded research or research and development (R/R&D). One of the specific purposes of the program is to increase private sector commercialization of innovations derived from federal R/R&D, thereby increasing competition, productivity, and economic growth. In particular, SBIR Ignite seeks to fund early-stage, high-risk technologies that are relevant in the commercial market while contributing to the agency's goals in aeronautics and space technology development.
