About this opportunity
The Federal and State Technology (FAST) Partnership Program provides funding to organizations to execute state/regional programs that increase the number of SBIR/STTR proposals and awards from women, socially/economically disadvantaged individuals, and small businesses in underrepresented areas. The Small Business Administration is the federal agency offering this cooperative agreement opportunity. Key objectives include strengthening the technological competitiveness of small businesses in the U.S. Applicants may include higher education institutions, county/city governments, nonprofits, tribal entities, and small businesses.

The FAST program offers cooperative agreement funding, though specific award values are not provided.
