From Abstract to Pitch

A solid technical abstract explains your science. A winning pitch explains why a program manager, reviewer, or investor should fund it. This hands-on session shows participants how to bridge that gap by framing the problem, making the case for their approach and team, and presenting it in language that holds up under review. Attendees are encouraged to bring an abstract if they have one so they can apply the concepts directly to their own project. This session is a natural follow-up to Intro to SBIR/STTR and is equally valuable as a standalone workshop for anyone preparing a proposal or funding conversation.

Instructors: Kris Bockting, Missouri APEX Accelerator, and Bob Glidewell, Missouri SBDC at Mizzou.
