USTAR's Technology Acceleration Program (TAP) is a competitive grant program that supports private sector technology development. Proposed work can include, but is not limited to, research and development, proof of concept, product validation, and product development.

University Technology Acceleration Grants (UTAG) supports research and development of specific technologies that have significant commercial potential but need additional development before they can be spun out from the university setting. This funding addresses an innovation ecosystem gap between federal research dollars and angel investment, the “valley of death.”

Both of these programs are now accepting proposals for FY17. For more information on these programs and to apply, please visit ustar.org/our-programs/

Womenpreneurs: Difficult Conversations & Negotiation

Having the skills to manage difficult conversations and negotiations is the difference between getting the raise or hitting the ceiling, closing the deal or shying away, and stepping into your power or conceding your ground. Let's be real, these skills are essential. They are skills that can't be learned in schools, books or blogs. More often than not, they are earned through trial and fire - unless you have badass mentors. Enter Womenpreneurs: where you'll meet insanely inspiring mentors who will give you the tools and tactics to get you the results you deserve (and with #bossbabe swagger nonetheless)!
