Strong Coffee, Strong Women purposeful networking event is next week! Register now for this FREE event funded by the SBA Growth Accelerator Fund that is fueling the new Florida Techcelerator Program providing strategic business mentorship to help accelerate businesses in the manufacturing sector.
The public is invited to join us for networking and conversation. Presentations from Florida Tech leadership on IP and Tech Transfer programs will spur conversations to help innovative companies leverage their work and pursue new growth opportunities by partnering with Florida Tech.
Innovators in the private sector may want to partner with universities like Florida Tech to gain access to the technology, tools, equipment, lab space, faculty expertise, and student workforce. Such joint projects may also be able to apply for STTR funding, which is part of the $6 billion dollar annual investment in R&D Federal Government sets aside for small businesses. You can learn more about SBIR/STTR programs, which are also known as America's Seed Fund by visiting https://www.sbir.gov/about
