Technologies Using NASA Data to Foster Climate Resilience

The SBIR Ignite solicitation is a limited pilot program focused on technologies with a strong commercial pull. There are several differences from the traditional NASA annual SBIR and STTR solicitations. The limited number of topic areas of interest for this solicitation have been specifically selected for their commercial relevance. Offerors must demonstrate their understanding of the market and provide a strong commercialization plan to be considered responsive. Offerors familiar with the traditional NASA annual SBIR and STTR solicitations will notice significant differences in Section 3: Proposal Preparation Instructions and Requirements; Section 4: Method of Selection and Evaluation Criteria; Section 6: Submission of Proposals; and Section 8: Submission Forms. Be sure to read each of these sections carefully to ensure your proposal makes it through administrative screening to be considered. Proposal submission will occur through Box rather than the standard Electronic Handbook (EHB) platform used for the traditional NASA SBIR Phase I or II solicitation.
