The Department of the Air Force (DAF), in collaboration with AFWERX, is seeking innovative defense-related dual-purpose technologies and solutions through its Phase I Open Call. This opportunity aims to adapt non-defense commercial solutions to meet specific Air Force stakeholder needs, emphasizing the potential for commercialization and the fulfillment of identified defense needs. The initiative is crucial for exploring technologies applicable to both defense and non-defense markets, with Phase I awards valued at up to $110,000 for a duration of three months, and Phase II awards potentially reaching $1.8 million over 21 months. Interested parties must submit their proposals by March 7, 2024, to be considered for this opportunity, which can be accessed through the DOD SBIR/STTR website.
