Whether you’re a new entrepreneur, existing small business, or entrepreneur support organization, join us to learn more about the country’s largest source of early stage, non-dilutive funding.

Through the Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Technology Transfer (SBIR/STTR) programs, America’s Seed Fund’s mission is to support scientific excellence and technological innovation through the investment of federal funds in critical priorities to build a strong national economy. These programs represent the nation’s largest source of early-stage research and development (R&D) funding for small businesses. SBA coordinates the programs by collaborating with 11 Federal agencies that collectively direct more than $4 billion a year to domestic small businesses with the potential for commercialization, without taking equity or ownership in your intellectual property. These programs are an important resource for a wide range of researchers, innovators, inventors, entrepreneurs, and startups working on big ideas. America’s Seed Fund provides equitable access to funding based on the quality of your technological solution and its ability to advance federal missions – regardless of your race, ethnicity, gender, geography, or other affiliation.
