TL/DR: For participation in the SBIR and STTR programs, agencies now have a standard set of questions to ask small business concerns about their foreign investments and affiliations. Companies can use the questions to prepare for their disclosures.
The Small Business Administration (SBA) is amending the Policy Directive of the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs to harmonize participating agencies’ collection of information about applicants’ foreign investments and affiliations. Participating agencies have been required to collect such disclosures since passing of the SBIR and STTR Extension Act of 2022.
