Building Strategic Partners for DOD & NASA SBIR/STTR Proposals

Building strategic partners for DOD and NASA SBIR/STTR projects is important – it shows that you have identified and addressed gaps in your team and presents a credible pathway to transitioning the technology to the agency, often through a prime contractor. But while this is extremely important, and can often be a key differentiator for your proposal, it is not always an easy task to locate and engage a strategic partner, integrate them into your project plan and explain how this alliance benefits the end user. This session will provide tips on how to acquire a strategic partner, and discuss how to allocate tasks and budget to your partners.
