DOE Accepting Applicants For SBIR/STTR FY 2020 Phase I Release 2 Application Assistance
On December 6, 2019, DOE announced that the applications currently being accepted for free assistance preparing Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) FY 2020 Phase I Release 2 applications. There are a variety of eligibility criteria, and because space is limited, DOE Phase 0 applicants are admitted on a first-come, first-served basis. Each small business, however, is evaluated for selection to receive administrative and technical assistance based on the following selection criteria:
- The small business offers technology innovations relevant to the current and open DOE SBIR/STTR research topics and subtopics (topics can be accessed at science.osti.gov/sbir);
- The small business is or will be prior to award an eligible small business per 13 CFR Section 121.702;
- The small business has not previously applied for an SBIR or STTR award from the DOE; and
- Small business and/or owner has not received any Phase 0 technical assistance from DOE.
