Small
Business Innovation Research Gateway
The
Small Business Innovation Research is designed to increase
the success of smaller businesses in obtaining contracts
from Government bodies to conduct research and development.
The SBIR aims:
- to
provide opportunities to those existing small firms
whose businesses are based upon providing R&D
by increasing the size of the market
- to
encourage other smaller businesses to increase their
R&D capabilities and capacity
- to
exploit the new market opportunities
- to
create opportunities for starting new technology-based
or knowledge-based businesses

"ATP
projects focus on the technology needs of American
industry, not those of government. Research priorities
for the ATP are set by industry, based on their understanding
of the marketplace and research opportunities. For-profit
companies conceive, propose, co-fund, and execute
ATP projects and programs in partnerships with academia,
independent research organizations and federal labs."
"The
Advanced Technology Program (ATP) bridges the gap
between the research lab and the market place, stimulating
prosperity through innovation. Through partnerships
with the private sector, ATP’s early stage investment
is accelerating the development of innovative technologies
that promise significant commercial payoffs and widespread
benefits for the nation. As part of the highly regarded
National Institute of Standards and Technology, the
ATP is changing the way industry approaches R&D,
providing a mechanism for industry to extend its technological
reach and push out the envelope of what can be attempted."
