About NIA OSBR
The NIA Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer Programs (STTR) offer non-dilutive, no-strings-attached funding up to $2.5 million (depending on funding opportunity) to commercialize products addressing aging and aging-related diseases and conditions, Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias, and the special challenges and needs of older Americans.
About Our Webinar Partner: NINDS Small Business Program
The small business program at NINDS is used to achieve the mission of the Institute by supporting innovative ideas at different stages of development, including applied bench research, translational research, and early-stage clinical trials. While NINDS has specific funding opportunities, many of our applications are investigator-initiated and come in through the general NIH SBIR and STTR Omnibus solicitations.
