SBIR Topic

A specific research need published by a federal agency that defines the problem, technical objectives, and proposal requirements for an SBIR/STTR opportunity.

What is SBIR Topic?

An SBIR topic is the starting point for most proposals. It describes what the agency wants to investigate, what outcomes it expects, and which constraints applicants must address.

The best proposals do more than match keywords. They show that the startup understands the mission problem behind the topic, has a credible technical path, and can transition the result after the research phase.
