HHS Niche Assessment Program 

Designed to help small businesses strategically position their technology in the marketplace, the Niche Assessment Program is free to eligible awardees and provides an in-depth report on potential applications of participants’ technology. All active HHS (NIH, CDC, and FDA) SBIR/STTR Phase I awardees and Phase I Fast-Track awardees (by grant or contract) are eligible to apply. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis until all slots are filled. The next cohort will begin in early October 2019.

Niche provides market insight and data that can be used to help small businesses strategically position their technology in the marketplace. The results of this program can help small businesses develop their commercialization plan for their Phase II application, and be exposed to potential partners. Services are provided by Foresight Science & Technology of Providence, RI.
