About this opportunity
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is seeking entrepreneurial researchers through the Small Business Transition Grant for New Entrepreneurs. This grant aims to facilitate the career development of investigators new to entrepreneurship by supporting their employment and development within small business concerns (SBCs). The program targets scientists and professionals with strong research and technology development skills but limited entrepreneurial and independent research project leadership experience. Optimal candidates will be researchers who can grow their entrepreneurial skillset while developing promising technologies aligned with NIH's mission to improve health and save lives. Applicants will be evaluated based on scientific merit, technical adequacy of research design, investigator competency, adequacy of resources, budget appropriateness, and relevance to program objectives. The grant opportunity was posted on April 25, 2024, with a due date of November 17, 2025.
While specific award amounts are not detailed in the opportunity, the grant is structured as an R43/R44 mechanism typical of Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) programs. The research is expected to be performed in the United States by small businesses with no more than 500 employees, with the principal investigator having primary employment at the small business during the project. Potential applicants include state governments, higher education institutions, non-profits, tribal organizations, city/township governments, county governments, and small businesses across multiple activity categories including education, environment, food and nutrition, health, and income security and social services. The project period is likely to span multiple years, with typical SBIR grants supporting research and development across two distinct phases.
