Executive summary
Current state
NSF awarded DELEON TECHNOLOGIES $305K SBIR Phase I funding to develop a disposable microfluidic chip for urine analysis, creating a classic "SBIR Valley of Death" scenario where government-funded technical capability exists without commercial infrastructure for FDA clearance, manufacturing scale, or data monetization.
Market catalyst
NSF SBIR microfluidic awardees publicly disclose their manufacturing challenges and budget allocations but lack curated vendor lists - they're all independently searching for the same specialized suppliers (mask photolithography, polymer casting, glass bonding services)
