The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and the Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs represent the largest source of early-stage funding for high-tech start-up companies in the United States. These federally-mandated programs provide more than $2 billion every year to small, for-profit companies to carry out leading-edge high-risk research and to grow their businesses. More than 40% of these funds are awarded to companies with 10 or fewer employees and much of the money goes to companies with just 1-3 employees. Nearly 1/3 of the awards go to first-time winners every year.
