Small Business Innovation Research Program (SBIR) Phase II
The purpose of the Federal SBIR program is to stimulate technological innovation in the private sector, strengthen the role of small business in meeting Federal research or research and development (R/R&D) needs, and improve the return on investment from Federally-funded research for economic and
social benefits to the nation.
The specific purpose of NIDILRR's SBIR program is to improve the lives of people with disabilities through R/R&D products generated by small businesses, and to increase the commercial application of NIDILRR-supported research results and development products.
All SBIR projects funded by NIDILRR must address the needs of people with disabilities and promote their health and function, community living, or employment outcomes.
Phase II projects expand on the results of and further pursue the development of Phase I projects.
NIDILRR will make four grants under this opportunity.
Grants will have a 24-month project period with two 12-month budget periods.
