The state has announced the launch of a $6 million initiative to help startups commercialize technologies developed under Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grants.
The Start program, announced by Gov. Deval Patrick’s administration and the Massachusetts Technology Development Corp. (MTDC), will also provide coaching, business planning and introductions to potential investors, in hopes of increasing job growth in the state.
Life sciences and energy/clean-tech will not be considered under Start, as other Massachusetts programs support them, according to the announcement from MTDC.
