Welcome to the inaugural issue of Transportation Innovation on the Move, the U.S. Department of Transportation's newsletter featuring the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program.
The DOT SBIR program plays a unique role in helping the Department's operating administrations advance their research needs. It is one of the few opportunities with commercialization in mind — where we seek small businesses to develop outcomes that can strive for commercialization success while addressing critical transportation challenges. With both of these factors in mind, small businesses play a vital role in how the DOT can leverage innovation to advance its mission: To deliver the world's leading transportation system, serving the American people and economy through the safe, efficient, sustainable, and equitable movement of people and goods.
This quarterly newsletter is designed to share the great things happening in the SBIR program — and that means featuring our awardees! We want to know how DOT’s SBIR seed funding has helped you and helped our transportation systems. We want to know how your research has evolved and what your next steps are.
Reach out to us to share your stories by emailing us at dotsbir@dot.gov. We will also use the newsletter to share information with you about our program, Government-wide SBIR news, and other updates.
We look forward to reaching success together, with Transportation Innovation on the Move.
