The Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Program was created in 1992 by the Small Business Research and Development Enhancement Act to expand joint venture opportunities for small businesses and nonprofit research institutions by requiring small business recipients to collaborate formally with a research institution. The U.S. Congress tasked the National Research Council with undertaking a comprehensive study of how the SBIR and STTR programs have stimulated technological innovation and used small businesses to meet federal research and development needs, and with recommending further improvements to the programs. In the first round of this study, an ad hoc committee prepared a series of reports from 2004 to 2009 on the SBIR and STTR programs at the five agencies responsible for 96 percent of the programs' operations -- including the Department of Energy (DoE). Building on the outcomes from the first round, this second round presents the committee's second review of the DoE SBIR program's operations. Public- private partnerships like SBIR and STTR 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"--Publisher's description. 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 20 Small Business Technology Transfer Program (U.S.)|0https:/ /id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no97055128|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 610 27 Small Business Technology Transfer Program (U.S.)|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/731512 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 0 Federal aid to small business|zUnited States.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009124182 650 0 Small business|xGovernment policy|zUnited States.|0https:/ /id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008111755 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 650 7 Federal aid to small business.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/922285 650 7 Small business|xGovernment policy.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1121285 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 4 Electronic books. 710 2 National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (U.S.).|bCommittee on Capitalizing on Science, Technology, and Innovation: An Assessment of the Small Business Innovation Research Program--Phase II,|0https://id.loc.gov /authorities/names/n2016182231|eissuing body. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aAffairs, Policy and Global.|tSBIR/STTR at the Department of Energy.|dWashington, D.C. : National Academies Press, ©2016|z9780309437929 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1446697|zOnline eBook.
