This $299,139 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program will fund research to evaluate the impact of accelerated government R&D funding on small technology businesses. The research will use data on federal R&D funding, commercialization, finance, and procurement to examine 1) the impacts of gaps in waiting time between government R&D funding tranches, and 2) the impacts on key firms identified as priorities for support. The goal is to identify policy levers for enhancing public programs that finance innovation and explore the comparative advantage of such programs for certain scientists and firms. The award is held by the Georgia Tech Research Corporation and is expected to run from June 1, 2025 to May 31, 2027. The research has the potential to improve technology development and the survival of new, small technology firms by providing actionable, evidence-based policy recommendations for federal SBIR/STTR programs and related state/nonprofit innovation initiatives.
