NIST Awards Nearly $4 Million to 19 Small Businesses for Technology Development
September 13, 2019
The U.S. Department of Commerce’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has awarded a total of nearly $4 million in grants to 19 small businesses to support innovative technology development. Awardees in 12 states will receive Phase I or Phase II funding through NIST’s Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program.
“American small companies play an important role in technology innovation,” said Under Secretary of Commerce for Standards and Technology and NIST Director Walter G. Copan. “Funding through the SBIR program supports advances in key technology areas that can lead to improvements in health care, communications, manufacturing and more, and foster economic growth.”
Among the funded projects is one to commercialize a NIST-developed technology for sorting nanoparticles (above).
