Outreach

The Office of DOE SBIR/STTR Programs is always looking for opportunities to elevate awareness of our Programs and welcomes invitations to speak to your entrepreneurial community. One of the SBIR/STTR Programs goals is to increase the diversity of program participants and we welcome to the opportunity to speak to groups which are underrepresented in the Science and Engineering workforce. Outreach requests should be directed to the DOE SBIR/STTR Outreach Manager, Eileen Chant, eileen.chant@science.doe.gov.
