Overview
The Maryland Technology Development Corporation (TEDCO) and The Patuxent Partnership (TPP) have contracted with the Naval Air Warfare Center – Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) to facilitate transfer of technology. Technology development projects will be considered within the scope of the NTCI if the company can show how the proposed technology will meet the technology needs of NAVAIR (Spin-In). Funding for the NTCI is provided by Congress.
Funding and its Uses
NTCI awards of up to $75,000 will be made to for-profit small businesses in support of technology development projects that fall within the scope of the NTCI. Technology development projects that experience significant success and have a high potential benefit to the Navy may be eligible for a second round of NTCI funding up to $75,000.
Assistance in identifying whether or not a technology meets NAVAIR needs and in forming technology transfer collaborations is available from the points of contact listed. Applicants will be required to submit a white paper describing the technology insertion opportunity. Proposals for NTCI funding may be submitted by invitation only.
