SBA Introduces SBIR Pulse - Real Stories and Impacts from America's Startup Seed Fund
The SBA has initiated a new monthly feature about the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and the Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs. SBIR Pulse is available on the sbir.gov website and provides interviews with individuals from the different corners of the high-tech start-up ecosystem. The interviews provide readers with perspectives on how SBIR is impacting small businesses, driving innovation, and leading to technological solutions that improve local economies while addressing national priorities. The interviews also inform readers about the SBIR program and its many specific programs and initiatives.
The first interview features Javier Saade, Associate Administrator for the Office of Investment and Innovation at the Small Business Administration, who oversees the SBIR/STTR programs across the federal government. Saade provides advice for American start ups and offers his vision of SBIR/STTR for the next five years.
