the <strong>Small</strong> Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Program.<br />

<strong>Small</strong> Business Innovation Research (SBIR)<br />

Facts about SBIR<br />

The <strong>Small</strong> Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program is a highly competitive three-phase award<br />

system which provides qualified small businesses with opportunities to propose innovative ideas that<br />

meet specific research and research and development needs of the Federal government. Enacted in<br />

1982 as part of the <strong>Small</strong> Business Innovation Development Act Federal agencies with more than $100<br />

million in extramural R&D were required to allocate a percentage of their budgets exclusively <strong>for</strong> small<br />

businesses. This set-aside began in 1983 at 0.2% and is currently 2.5% resulting in the availability of<br />

approximately $2.6 billion in fiscal year 2008 to R&D small businesses.<br />
