Executive summary
Current state

NSF SBIR Phase II awards include up to $50,000 in Technical and Business Assistance (TABA) funding specifically for third-party commercialization services, but awardee companies like Teraspatial Inc lack the vendor relationships and market knowledge to deploy this capital effectively, creating a $50k budget per company that requires external expertise to unlock.
