Small Business Technology Transfer

Abstract

The goals of the Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) program are to stimulate a partnership of ideas between small business concerns (SBCs) and research institutions through DoD funded research or research and development (R/R&D). By providing awards to SBCs or cooperative R/R&D efforts with research institutions, DoD supports innovation and economic growth to generate decisive and sustained U.S. military advantages. This program supports high priority projects within the DoD Components, their missions, and the Warfighter. SDA leverages STTR funds to support the collaborative development of defense space technologies by small businesses partnering with U.S. research institutions. By supporting such partnerships between emerging technology development companies and leading research organizations, SDA will help to foster the growth of a stronger, more integrated space industrial base while addressing our nation’s greatest technical challenges in space. These STTR opportunities have the potential to enhance future tranches and inform the overall architecture of spiral development projects to demonstrate warfighter capability via proliferated low Earth orbit.
