Imagine your small business pioneering breakthrough research and securing Department of Defense funding to fuel innovation.

That's exactly what's possible with the SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research) program, a unique opportunity for businesses to access substantial funding for cutting-edge research and prototype development.

On December 10th, you’ll have the opportunity to connect face-to-face with Navy SBIR success stories and industry veterans locally and from Washington, D.C., who’ve helped businesses like yours transform their ideas into reality.

Guided by leaders in Navy tech and defense, this exclusive event provides a hands-on opportunity to gain insights into the upcoming DoD SBIR 25.1 release, specifically tailored to the Navy’s latest priorities.

This workshop is a joint effort between the NavalX NW Tech Bridge, and the Washington State APEX Accelerator, and is presented by Matchstick Lab.
