Abstract
The Small Business Research Innovation grant provides small businesses with the opportunity to access significant federal funding and support for commercialization. However, the application process can be intimidating, particularly for small organizations unfamiliar with business-related information collection. To address this challenge, we propose utilizing the Value Model Canvas, a business information tool designed to simplify processes by providing a structured framework for collecting essential information, including market opportunity, technological innovation, and research objectives. The information gathered using the canvas aligns with the requirements for the grant application process, potentially streamlining the application process.
