| Description: | The National Institutes of Health (NIH), through its Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs, seeks to develop and nurture a national innovation ecosystem that builds upon biomedical research to develop technologies, products and services that benefit society.Toward meeting this objective, the NIH is collaborating with the National Science Foundation (NSF) to help accelerate the commercialization of early stage biomedical technologies by leveraging the NSF’s established I-Corps team training program, which is focused on educating researchers and technologists on how to translate technologies from the lab into the marketplace.Under this funding opportunity announcement (FOA), participating NIH Institutes and Centers will provide administrative supplement awards to a pilot cohort of currently-funded SBIR and STTR Phase I grantees to support entrepreneurial training under the I-Corps Team Training Pilot Program at the NIH.The program is designed to provide three-member project teams with access to instruction and mentoring in order to accelerate the translation of technologies currently being developed with NIH SBIR and STTR funding.It is anticipated that outcomes for the I-Corps teams participating in this program will include significantly refined commercialization plans and well-informed pivots in their overall commercialization strategies.Prospective applicants are strongly encouraged to contact NIH Scientific/Research staff for more information about this pilot program before applying. |
