SUMMARY:Building Strategic Partners for DOD & NASA SBIR/STTR Proposals
DESCRIPTION:Building strategic partners for DOD and NASA SBIR/STTR projects is important – it shows that you have identified and addressed gaps in your team and presents a credible pathway to transitioning the technology to the agency\, often through a prime contractor. But while this is extremely important\, and can often be a key differentiator for your proposal\, it is not always an easy task to locate and engage a strategic partner\, integrate them into your project plan and explain how this alliance benefits the end user. This session will provide tips on how to acquire a strategic partner\, and discuss how to allocate tasks and budget to your partners.\nFunded in part through a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Small Business Administration\nPresented by TechOpp Consulting\nCOST: Virginia based companies/Va. University $FREE; All Others $35 per person

SUMMARY:Bridging DOD Funded Work to Commercial Markets
DESCRIPTION:The DOD is focused on technology to enable the warfighter and uses the SBIR/STTR program to find new and promising research that will create products and services that give us the edge on the battlefield. But often there are other markets that can benefit from the technology with modifications to address their specific requirements. These commercial opportunities can dwarf the military one as small businesses pivot from military to civilian requirements. Learn how to discover these parallel markets\, make the connections\, and start the conversations that can lead to significant revenue for the small business. \nFunded in part through a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Small Business Administration.
