Launching Emerging Technologies in the Federal Government (eBook)
Organizations with innovative emerging technologies should have a strategy for working with the Federal Government. Government contracts are a great way to not only access non-dilutive funding to help with product development but saying you are working with the Federal Government provides credibility for your technology in commercial markets.
SBIR and the Lean Start Up…
At Marion Square we focus on helping technology companies launch/grow their US Government business. We view the Governments Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) research program as a low cost, low risk approach for small technology companies to test Government product / market fit for their product or service. Instead of guessing at market requirements or running around the DC beltway trying to meet with dozens of agencies the SBIR program (especially the USAF Open Topic) allows organizations to submit a short proposal (typically less than 10 pages) explaining how their product/service will solve a USAF problem.
