- SBIR Awardees - now totaling more than 21,800 firms of which some 6.100 are currently Program involved - arguably are the largest single concentration of technical talent employing some 400,000 advanced degree-ed engineers & scientists.
- Firms which are/have been SBIR-STTR involved have issued almost 120,000 US patents - the overwhelming percentage being current, with many having requisite international holdings. Solid citation rate. Daily, some 10-12 USPTO issued patents involve an SBIR-STTR awardee.
- Through the years, 25% R&D 100 Awards have been taken by SBIR Awardees - several being multiple winners. Comparable percentages in other technology recognition settings.
- A total of ELEVEN Nobel Prize recipients have an SBIR connection - most being identified as Principal Investigator on an SBIR funded project. The most recent of these is a small firm founded by the 2014 winner of the Nobel in Physics. Founded in 2007, that firm took the first of its SIX phase I awards in 2008 of which (to date) THREE have gone to Phase II. The most recent of their awards was in 2104.
- In recent years, ONE in every SEVEN-EIGHT VC dollars invested in the US have involved SBIR-STTR awardees. 2613 firms to date (11.97% of all awardees) . To date, received investment dollars total some $74B - factoring to almost twice the total federal SBIR-STTR dollars so far awarded: $340.18B
- 1837 SBIR-STTR M&A transactions - now at almost 8.5 percent of all awardees - a percentage that, having remained consistent for many years, is now climbing. This has involved 1299 buyers - 351 (27%) themselves having been SBIR awardees - several having outgrown size standards and no longer program involved directly, some having, in part, employed an acquisition strategy to support growth; a few others still program active. The major percentage of acquirers are major corporations - many having multiple SBIR acquisitions. Median value: $42M; Average price: $365M
- Our data - which may well not be complete - shows 2484 major and mid-sized corporations having in-place or previous working relationships and/or business transactions and relationships with SBIR-involved firms. Taking a range of forms, most of these Tech Seekers have these type(s) of connection to many different SBIR awardees, and/or multiple connection to particular awardees - still ongoing.
....ASSET system outcomes already have enabled hundreds of serious on-their-site discussions between interested Tech Seekers and a wide range of particular SBIR-involved firms. Dozens of working relationships have been consummated and transactions worth in excess of $270M are on record with many more pending.
