The U.S. Congress tasked the National Research Council with undertaking a comprehensive study of how the SBIR program has stimulated technological innovation and used small businesses to meet federal research and development needs, and with recommending further improvements to the program. In the first round of this study, an ad hoc committee prepared a series of reports from 2004 to 2009 on the SBIR program at the five agencies responsible for 96 percent of the program's operations--including the National Science Foundation (NSF). Building on the outcomes from the first round, this second round presents the committee's second review of the NSF SBIR program's operations. Public-private partnerships like SBIR are particularly important since today's knowledge economy is driven in large part by the nation's capacity to innovate. One of the defining features of the U.S. economy is a high level of entrepreneurial activity. Entrepreneurs in the United States see opportunities and are willing and able to assume risk to bring new welfare- enhancing, wealth-generating technologies to the market. Yet, although discoveries in areas such as genomics, bioinformatics, and nanotechnology present new opportunities, converting these discoveries into innovations for the market involves substantial challenges. The American capacity for innovation can be strengthened by addressing the challenges faced by entrepreneurs. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (National Academies Press, viewed January 16, 2016). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 610 20 National Science Foundation (U.S.).|bSmall Business Innovation Research Program|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n84176522|xEvaluation.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh00005674 610 27 National Science Foundation (U.S.).|bSmall Business Innovation Research Program.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/596130 650 0 Small business|xTechnological innovations|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85123582|xResearch |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002006576 |zUnited States.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n78095330-781 650 7 Evaluation.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/916975 650 7 Small business|xTechnological innovations.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1121372 650 7 Research.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1095153 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aCommittee On Capitalizing On Science, Technology, And Innovation: An Assessment Of The Small SBIR at the National Science Foundation.|d[S.l.] : National Academies Press, 2015|z0309311969 |w(OCoLC)934196852 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1159276|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
