Frequently Asked Questions

All applicants to the SBIR or STTR programs must register on the SBIR/STTR Company Registry.

The Company Registry is a new element of the SBIR/STTR data system and application process.  Once you have registered, your company will be given an SBIR/STTR ID number that you will use when applying to any SBIR/STTR agency solicitation.  SBA expects this to facilitate the application process and reduce the need for multiple data entry.
