/>iOn December 6, 2019, DOE announced that the applications currently being accepted for free assistance preparing Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) FY 2020 Phase I Release 2 applications. There are a variety of eligibility criteria, and because space is limited, DOE Phase 0 applicants are admitted on a first-come, first-served basis. Each small business, however, is evaluated for selection to receive administrative and technical assistance based on the following selection criteria:
-
The small business offers technology innovations relevant to the current and open DOE SBIR/STTR research topics and subtopics (topics can be accessed at science.osti.gov/sbir);
-
The small business is or will be prior to award an eligible small business per 13 CFR Section 121.702;
-
The small business has not previously applied for an SBIR or STTR award from the DOE; and
-
Small business and/or owner has not received any Phase 0 technical assistance from DOE.
Qualified small businesses can submit an application at www.dawnbreaker.com/doephase0/apply.php.
