SBIR/STTR Resource Center 
There may be $100,000 to $1,000,000 available to help you bring your technology to reality or the next generation – through the Small Business Transfer program and the help of the SBIR/STTR Assistance Program.
If you are a small technology oriented business with an idea, discovery and/or innovative concept but need help with its development, please contact the SBIR/STTR Assistance Center.
In April 2009, the Center hosted a one-day seminar to educate small businesses on SBIR-STTR opportunities and best practices. Thirty eight entrepreneurs and small business owners attended the Phase I Writing Workshop at Salt Lake Community College. Jim Greenwood, SBIR Guru, conducted the workshop, which was rated ‘highly valuable” by 100 percent of responding attendees. Read a synopsis of the seminar's "Top 10 Pointers for a Successful SBIR-STTR Application."

"Establishing the center creates better access to funding opportunities for Utah small businesses," Ted McAleer, USTAR Executive Director, said. "The center's staff will provide the needed skills and experience to assist small businesses with finding appropriate SBIR/STTR opportunities and writing successful grants."
