The Defense Department awarded $2,272 MM of SBIR and STTR contracts to about 3,300 small businesses in 2008. This Workshop presents how your firm can participate in this funding in a pragmatic, “nuts and bolts” approach. More importantly, you will learn how to maximize your return on investment of time and effort to prepare winning proposals to fund your company’s products, services and technology development goals.
The Challenge: Small and medium-size businesses, innovators and entrepreneurs are the foundation of our country’s economic strength. To be effective, leaders must have a clear understanding of the economic trends and indicators that influence the economy.
What Will be Covered: Please join us for a pre-conference workshop where industry experts will present a comprehensive assessment of the aerospace industry across the nation and around the world with a special focus on New England. The emphasis will be on manufacturing, and will include comparisons of hundreds of firms by product, service and performance for both military and commercial markets. Based on an extensive analysis of economic and financial data, this workshop will also address the outlook for the future. If you are concerned about the state of the aerospace industry, you will not want to miss this event. Join us at this pre-conference workshop and become part of a national mission to restore our aerospace industrial base.
