SBIR/STTR - Successful Collaboration from a University Perspective

Tuesday, May 7 - 2:00 pm to 3:00 pm

Presenters: 

  • Timothy L. Gehret, Esq, Associate/OSP Contracting Officer, Georgia Tech Research Corporation (GTRC), Office of Sponsored Programs/SBIR-STTR Awards, Georgia Institute of Technology

SBIR and STTR projects can provide valuable research and financial opportunities to the small business and the universities with whom they collaborate, but they  also present a unique set of challenges. From Conflicts of Interest and Intellectual Property to Invoicing and Payment; these programs, which are designed to promote research, have a very real potential to hinder it. This webinar will highlight ways universities can address some of these challenges from the proposal phase through closeout and mitigate some of the risks they present. We will discuss the proposal process, the contract terms, flow down clauses, and various risk mitigation methods available.

Learning Objectives:

  • Identify potential conflicts and challenges of collaborating on SBIR/STTR
  • Understand their legal and ethical implications
  • Learn about different mitigation tools available to help resolve these issues
  • Understand how to incorporate them into your proposal and contracting process
