About this program
SBIR and STTR grants are rewarded to companies that have identified a high tech innovation that may have commercial potential. The goal of this state matching program is to increase the amount of viable, innovative products developed at Illinois small businesses. Additional grant funds at the crucial early period during development of these products will provide more "runway" for small, innovative businesses in Illinois to get their products to market.
Run federal grants too?
State grants are free to browse and are not part of member fit-scoring, alerts, or the Tuesday digest — those cover federal grants. Members get every federal grant that opens fit-scored to their organization (the home page defines exactly what the board covers) — with an alert when a real match posts.
