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.

Instructions. To apply, please

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.
