The FY2023-1 SBIR Contract Program solicitation has been posted!

“The National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) invite small business concerns (SBCs) to submit research proposals under this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Contract Solicitation. 

Please see link above for specific solicitations.

Contract funding is very different from grant funding, and a project needs to be a very (very) good fit to pursue this mechanism.

This solicitation has a receipt date of November 4, 2022 for receipt of proposals.

Wondering if your company could win non-dilutive funding through an SBIR contract? Have questions about understanding the solicitation details? Reach out today and we will connect you with one of our experts!
