Are you developing a promising cancer-focused technology and seeking funding to move it toward commercialization?

Join the National Cancer Institute’s (NCI) Small Business Innovation Research Development Center for an in-person seminar and one-on-one meetings with NCI SBIR Program Directors. During the morning session, you’ll learn about funding and commercialization resources available through NCI.  In the optional afternoon session, selected attendees will have the opportunity to discuss their projects directly with Program Directors.

Designed for early-stage companies, academic innovators, and entrepreneurial researchers, the event will cover non-dilutive funding opportunities, strategies for developing competitive proposals, and resources to support commercialization. The event also includes a lunchtime resource fair and networking opportunities.

The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs are a critical source of non-dilutive federal funding for early-stage companies. NCI SBIR/STTR programs provide approximately $200 million annually to US small businesses advancing innovative cancer technologies, including therapeutics, diagnostics, devices, digital health tools, and research technologies. In addition to funding, the NCI SBIR Development Center offers a range of commercialization resources to help small businesses bring their products to market.
