Advanced Technology Program, ATP Business Reporting Surveys:
Baseline Survey: This collection of survey responses compiles baseline information about companies that have received ATP funding, and about the projects that have been promoted by these funds. The respondents of this survey have detailed knowledge of the technical and business aspects of the ATP-funded project and of their respective companies. Also available are data collected during the project Anniversary Survey, at the end of the project, Closeout Survey, and at two-year intervals after the project ends, Post-Project Survey.
Advanced Technology Program, Survey of Applicants 2000, 2002, 2004
ATP designed this survey to help assess their award application process and understand the factors that prompted applicants to apply for ATP funding. This survey gathers information on questions such as reasons for applying for ATP funding and characteristics of proposed projects.
Advanced Technology Program, ATP Joint Venture Survey
This ATP survey assists in assessing various aspects of joint venture projects funded by the ATP. Responses from this survey provide valuable information about the experiences of joint venture partners and offer insights into the internal functioniong of these research alliances.
The America COMPETES Act (PL 110-69, signed on Aug. 9, 2007) created a new Technology Innovation Program (TIP) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). TIP was established “to support, promote, and accelerate innovation in the United States through high-risk, high-reward research in areas of critical national need.
TIP is aimed at speeding the development of high-risk, transformative research targeted to address key societal challenges. Funding could be provided to industry (small and medium-sized businesses), universities, and consortia for research on potentially revolutionary technologies for meeting critical national needs that present high technical risks—with commensurate high rewards if successful. The primary mechanism for this support would be cost-shared research grants, cooperative agreements, or contracts awarded on the basis of merit competitions.
