TEDCO, Maryland’s economic engine for technology companies, announces the “Navigating SBIR/STTR: From Application to Commercialization” session at the 2024 Entrepreneur Expo this December 4. The “must-attend” event will bring entrepreneurs of all experiences, investors and more under one roof at the Renaissance Baltimore Harborplace Hotel.
“SBIR/STTR grants are pivotal for tech startups, but understanding how to make the most of them is essential,” said vice president of TEDCO’s Federal Programs, Kim Mozingo. “With insights from experts in federal funding, commercialization, and venture investment, this panel offers a unique roadmap to help entrepreneurs transform their research into real-world impact, scaling their ideas into thriving enterprises.”
From applying for the grant to achieving successful commercialization, SBIR/STTR grants can be overwhelming and confusing to navigate. Join Henry Ahn, National Science Foundation, Dr. Elizabeth Clayborne, NasaClip, Jack Miner, TEDCO and Edmund Pendleton, Mid-Atlantic I-Corps and NSF I-Corps, as they discuss insights, experiences and resources that are available. After the session, attendees will leave with actionable strategies and resources to take innovations to the next level.
