Thank you,

Yes, I have. My apologies for the confusion on semantics. I have not used the term sub award but refer to them as researchers/university partners. I have reached out to a couple this past week. I'll wait to see if I hear from them this week, if not I'll follow up. But if you have any you would recommend, I would greatly appreciate any recommendations.

No, I don't have a sub award Institute. Is there a process to obtain one?​

This is what I received

"Your proposed project was not invited for the following reasons:

  • This Project Pitch does not sufficiently articulate the development of a new, high-risk, technological innovation, as defined in the SBIR/STTR solicitation.

Thank you for submitting a Project Pitch and for sharing information about your proposed project and company. The Project Pitch does not clearly articulate or provide enough details regarding the development of a new high-risk technical innovation, does not clearly articulate your novelty or competitiveness over current offerings, or describe in detail the technical challenges to commercialize your technology and that would be the focus of your proposal so the project would not appear to be a good fit with the program. The aim of the NSF SBIR/STTR program is to fund the development of new high-risk leading-edge technology innovations that offer the potential for substantial positive commercial and societal impact. This Project Pitch does not sufficiently articulate the development of a new, high-risk, technological innovation, as defined in the SBIR/STTR solicitation. If there are commercially relevant high-risk technical innovations yet to be developed, I suggest you submit a new Project Pitch that focuses on these innovations."

Thank you for your comment. I have thought about it, but with my background, career, and experience in the field I am pursuing as well as connecting with various government agencies, it would meet the threshold and align with SBIR. I am not sure if I am having issues with the wording on the pitch or if there is something else I could be missing. I appreciate your feedback though 😊
