NASA Civilian Commercialization Readiness Pilot Program
Funds U.S. small businesses with completed NASA SBIR or STTR Phase II work through a NASA investment of $500,000 to $2,500,000 matched to an external investor commitment.
NASA's Space Technology Mission Directorate (STMD) administers the Civilian Commercialization Readiness Pilot Program (CCRPP) as a Post Phase II contract award for U.S. small businesses that have previously completed a NASA SBIR or STTR Phase II award. CCRPP sits within the broader NASA SBIR/STTR program and was established to bridge the gap between Phase II R&D and full commercialization or NASA …
Space technology commercialization and NASA mission infusion — advanced technologies that have completed Phase II SBIR/STTR and are ready to accelerate toward commercial markets or NASA mission applications.
