TTDC is pleased to announce that the Phase 0 Grant Program has been extended until December 31, 2008 or until initial funds are exhausted.  A few minor changes have been made with regard to the Phase 0 Solicitation and the overall application process, but the main elements of the program remain the same.  Check out the new updates on the 2008 Solicitation, FAQ, and application forms.

The Phase 0 Grant Program will provide up to $4,000 in funding to qualified small businesses that need assistance applying for federal Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) grants.
