Eva Garland Consulting (EGC) is thrilled to extend our partnership with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to support small businesses in developing SBIR/STTR proposals through the NIH Applicant Assistance Program (AAP).    Currently in its 5^th year, the AAP has supported over 500 companies in submitting NIH SBIR/STTR applications that have resulted in over $34 million in SBIR/STTR awards and an additional $633 million in follow-on equity funding!

The upcoming NIH AAP cycle supports proposals for the January 5, 2024 deadline.    Each accepted participant will receive 10 weeks of customized assistance from an EGC expert to prepare and submit their Phase I SBIR/STTR proposal.

Eligible small businesses may apply for the current round of the AAP on the AAP website by Tuesday, September 12^th  at 5:00 PM ET.
