» Program Descriptions
The goal of the Ohio Research Commercialization Grant Program (ORCGP) is to support the commercialization of new products and services derived from Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR), Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR), and the Advanced Technology Program (ATP) [now known as Technology Innovation Program (TIP)] research and development projects. The Phase II SBIRs and STTRs are designed to develop commercial prototypes of products employing advanced technology. Similarly, the TIP is designed to support research into technologies with potential commercial applications. None of these programs, however, allow small businesses to recover certain types of costs associated with commercializing their technology. Development designed the ORCGP to specifically provide a source of funding to cover commercialization expenses and to accelerate the time to commercial market entry of products derived from SBIR, STTR, and ATP/TIP funding. The ORCGP is a flexible source of funding to ensure that research and development efforts by Ohio small businesses result in commercial products that improve their top line revenue.
New applications for this program are not being accepted in FY 2010.
