Registration for the St. Louis SBIR/STTR Road Tour event on August 18, 2016 is now open!

“It is incredibly important to make this type of programming accessible to companies and researchers throughout Missouri and the Greater St. Louis Region,” explained Christy Maxfield, director of entrepreneur development services. “While SBIR/STTR funding is very competitive, we have local success stories – applicants who have tapped this valuable funding resource to help commercialize a wide array of advance technologies. With more than $2.5 billion available in non-dilutive early stage funding up for grabs, local businesses need to seize every opportunity to compete for SBIR/STTR dollars.”

CET is committed to helping small businesses access the support and resources they need to understand SBIR/STTR funding opportunities. It is hosting the SBIR/STTR Road Tour’s St. Louis event in partnership with BioSTL, Illinois Metro East Small Business Development Center at SIUE, MO PTAC St. Charles, Eastern Region, St. Louis Economic Development Partnership, St. Louis Regional Chamber, St. Louis SBTDC/St. Louis Minority Business Council, Technology Entrepreneur Center/T-REX and Missouri S&T Technology Transfer & Economic Development.
