Call for Applicants for the Inaugural Cohort of the Lansing Regional SBIR + MedTech Accelerator

Spartan Innovations, in partnership with the Lansing Economic Area Partnership (LEAP), seeks applicants for the inaugural Lansing Regional SBIR + MedTech Accelerator program. The 12-week virtual accelerator program will run from September 12, 2022 to December 12, 2022 and is focused on helping teams with high-tech medical technologies prepare and submit SBIR/STTR grants and pre-SBIR grants (MTRAC, Advance, PFI and others) to an appropriate Federal agency.

Since 2013, Spartan Innovations has helped start-up companies win over $35 million in non-dilutive funding from SBIR and STTR grant programs, including $12 million in 2021 alone. This funding is crucial to help early-stage companies achieve critical milestones in product and services development and customer acquisition that ultimately prepares the company to raise money from strategic investors.
