How does a company qualify for the DOD Fast Track program?
In the DOD you must attract and outside investor for your project who will commit cash to the project within 90 days of the start of your Phase II effort. Outside investors may include such entities as another company, a venture capital firm, an individual investor, or a non SBIR, non STTR government program; they do not include the owners of the small business, their family members, and/or affiliates of the small business.
