The process is complex with a steep learning curve, but the impact of receiving $millions in non-dilutive funding is worth the effort! This two-hr. session, conducted by nationally recognized SBIR/STTR expert and SBIR Impact NYC program director, Becky Aistrup, will provide an overview of SBIR/STTR funding, discuss eligibility requirements, and help participants determine whether or not they should take the next steps in pursuing this compelling source of funding.
