2010 National SBIR Conference

One-On-One Meetings for Small Technology Companies
As you register online for the conference you will have an opportunity to select the companies and federal agencies/labs that you would like to speak to during short, private, scheduled, meetings. The conversations should be about technology innovation. At a later date you may go back to your registration information and change your selections, if desired. It's all part of the registration process. Feel free to bring business cards, brochures and small, non-electric demonstrations to your meetings. (Your schedule will be given to you on site at the registration desk and cannot be provided earlier. We use the week prior to the conference to create the complex schedule for hundreds of attendees.)

Boot Camp: Additionally, consider attending our Pre-Conference Workshop that will focus on pitching to investors. Make the most out of your poster exhibit time. The cost for exhibiting is an additional $125 per organization (only one attendee coming from a company needs to pay $125). There will be an Award for the best technology.

Sponsor Exhibit Hall
We are fortunate to have SBIR Agencies, large companies, non-profits, service providers, investors, universities, etc. as sponsors. Please visit their booths during the 3-day conference. These organizations have contributed generously and come to this event because they want to "Partner for Profit" with you. This year we will provide additional access to the exhibits through the dining hall, so that attendees can visit with sponsors during meal times.

Presentations, Panel Discussions and Tracks
We are providing 3 days jam-packed with presentations and discussions on agency news, commercialization strategies, open innovation, agency innovation needs, manufacturing innovation needs, success stories, intellectual property, licensing, etc. On the final day of the conference, there will be several tracks focused on Sustainable Energy, Aerospace/Manufacturing and Healthcare.
