Event description

The America’s Seed Fund 2024 Road Tour is coming to Arkansas as part of a national tour that will connect entrepreneurs working on advanced technology to the country’s largest source of early-stage funding.

Also known as the Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Technology Transfer programs, America’s Seed Fund focuses on next-generation research and development through 11 participating federal agencies. 

America's Seed Fund provides over $4 billion in non-dilutive, early-stage funding to small companies each year in a wide variety of technology areas such as unmanned systems, advanced materials, health, cybersecurity, and defense.

Agency representatives will travel together to Little Rock to conduct one-on-one meetings with entrepreneurs, take part in panel discussions, present on SBIR/STTR technology areas, and share insights into how agencies make funding decisions.

The Road Tour stop in Little Rock is hosted by the Arkansas Small Business and Technology Development Center.
