WEBINAR ALERT! Supplemental SBIR award financing – Technical and Business Assistance - October 10, 10am EST. Did you know that $19.5 million in SBIR funding is going largely unclaimed? More than half of the MD SBIR awards allow optional supplemental funds for “Technical and Business Assistance” efforts or TABA. These funds are designated to cover things like regulatory compliance, cybersecurity, and other legal and business issues more related to commercial applications than technical development. Obtaining TABA funding is not automatic, and rules vary dramatically between agencies and between branches of the same agency. Join us at 10AM on October 10 to discuss the details of “How to Get Free TABA Funds”. https://lnkd.in/egKUSKSg
