FY 2025 NIST Small Business Innovation Research Program Phase II
Grant Opportunity Analysis
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is inviting applications for the FY 2025 Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program Phase II, specifically targeting previous Phase I award recipients from FY 2024. This opportunity aims to support the development of market-ready products or services, with a focus on enhancing innovation in federally funded research and development, while also addressing federal R&D needs through small businesses. NIST anticipates funding approximately five awards, each up to $400,000 over a 24-month project period, with applications due by June 14, 2025, submitted via Grants.gov. For further inquiries, applicants can contact Misty Roosa at Grants@nist.gov.
Eligible Applicants
Applicants must qualify as a Small Business Concern for Research/Research and Development (R/R&D) purposes, as defined in Section 1.05 of this NOFO, at the time of award. In addition, the primary employment of the principal investigator must be with the small business at the time of the award and during the conduct of the proposed research. Primary employment means that more than one-half of the principal investigator's time is spent working with the small business. Primary employment with a small business precludes full-time employment with another organization.
