Selecting a Subcontractor for Your SBIR/STTR Technology Project
Introduction to SBIR/STTR
The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs are two of the largest bases for technology commercialization within the United States. They were created to help small businesses research and develop technology-driven products that have the potential to be commercialized.
All of these products are created with the same goal, which is to improve health. Not only do these programs help to potentially create lifesaving technology, but they help small businesses obtain access to federal funding to be able to create these technologies. Examples of some SBIR/STTR funded projects are those with applications in the Army, Navy, NASA, and Air Force.
Why You Should Consider a Career in Manufacturing
It’s no secret that technology is evolving at a faster pace than ever before. More and more people invest millions of dollars into the manufacturing sector to cater to people’s demands. This rise of funding in the manufacturing industry has led to a stark increase in skilled labor demand.

Pharmaceutical Applications of Printed Electronics
As the printed electronics industry continues to grow, so do their potential applications. In recent years, printed electronics have begun to quickly find their niche into pharmaceutical applications and the medical industry. Pharmaceutical is defined as applications relating to medicinal drugs, their preparation, use, or sale. Printed electronics can be used to help monitor dosage, temperature, tamper detection, manufacturing and more.
UX vs UI: Which Should You Focus On?
It takes a lot of time, effort, and money to create a perfectly designed product. Even the most mundane things are carefully thought of and innovated to create the perfect design.
Healthcare Force Sensing Resistors
FSR Technology Explained:
Force Sensing Resistors have far more applications than typically thought of in the past. Dating back to 1977 when they were first invented by Frank Eventoff, FSR’s were created with the sole purpose of making electronic musical instruments more expressive. However, it wasn’t long after that they began to pick up the momentum and wide variety of applications we see today. Healthcare Force Sensing Resistors is one field that is continuing to pick up steam.
