Welcome to the NIH Commercialization Assistance Program (NIH-CAP)! The program is in its fifth year. It is designed to help some of the nation's most promising small companies in the life sciences in introducing their SBIR-funded technologies into the marketplace. NIH has engaged the services of Larta Institute (www.larta.org) to help implement the program. The program is customized to meet the needs of early stage and seasoned companies in two distinct tracks, Commercialization Training Track (CTT), and Accelerator Commercialization Track (ACT), respectively. Each is different in their objectives and outcomes. Details about the NIH-CAP Program and its two tracks, CTT & ACT, are available in the Program Description.

For more information, please visit the Application Instructions. To apply, please Register your company.

Since this program has many new elements, we are currently updating information in some sections of the site. In the meantime, if you have any questions, please contact Judy Hsieh, Programs Manager, Larta Institute, at jhsieh@larta.org or call 213.538.1444.
