SUMMARY:The Nuts and Bolts of SBIRs/STTRs across Life Science Agencies WEBINAR
DESCRIPTION:The Nuts and Bolts of SBIRs/STTRs across Life Science Agencies WEBINAR\n\n\nFeeling daunted by the range of SBIR/STTR opportunities offered to support your emerging company’s life science product development?  With 11 federal agencies supporting the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs\, newcomers to the process may miss opportunities that are right for them simply because they may not be aware of some of the in’s and out’s of SBIRs/STTRs across agencies.
