Hi, SBIR is the Small Business Innovation Research from the federal gov't with web site at: http://www.sbir.gov/
(And I should have spelled out that abbreviation too ;) Just FYI - This is from the web site: "The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) Office of Technology administers the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program and the Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Program. Through these two competitive programs, SBA ensures that the nation's small, high-tech, innovative businesses are a significant part of the federal government's research and development efforts. Eleven federal departments participate in the SBIR program; five departments participate in the STTR program awarding $2billion to small high-tech businesses. The U.S National Science Foundation administers the SBIR.GOV site on behalf of the federal government. GRANTS.gov GRANTS.gov is your source to FIND and APPLY for federal government grants. Before completing an application, please contact the Agency you are applying to to make sure they use GRANTS.gov" - Jim D.
