The SBIR/STTR Matching Fund, administered by LaunchTN (via the State of Tennessee) and supported by the Tennessee General Assembly, aims to advance the commercialization efforts of Tennessee-based companies by matching successful Phase I and Phase II SBIR/STTR awards up to $100,000 and $300,000, respectively.

“At LaunchTN, we’re excited about what technological transformations the future holds and the role we believe Tennessee innovators have in shaping them, ” said Charles Layne, LaunchTN’s Innovation Manager. “Thanks to the SBIR/STTR Matching Fund, we have an opportunity to support our entrepreneurs in the acceleration and commercialization of their technologies while also ensuring the technologies of tomorrow are being built right here at home in Tennessee.”

In the 6 years since program inception, the SBIR/STTR Matching Fund has deployed $13M in state dollars to help Tennessee companies. This has created over 650 high paying jobs and contributed to over $348M in economic impact across the state.
