SBIR vs STTR (30 Dec 2007) SBIR vs. STTR: If you are participating in the SBIR program you may also want to consider participating in the Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Program. The STTR program is considered SBIR's twin sister, although there are some added hoops one must jump through in order to participate.

Did you get that nuance? Perhaps that is oversimplifying it.
