Intern to subcontractor mentor protege , a model program
The chief technologist out at NASA Ames told me last year that a SBIR small business owned by a non engineer could hire an engineer to do the work so here is my idea ( think I will blog about it today)
Hire Help to write a good kickstarter page
using kickstarter to raise funds to hire a SBIR grant writer
Grant writer might be your engineer as well
Kickstarter phase two raises matching funds to that of the SBIR funds
convince DOD/contractors that internship programs can lead to Mentor protegé subcontractor and not just an employment pathway.
(IE employee to subcontractor)
Intern is an employee, graduates from intern to mentor protege program and from here goes to transform to a subcontractor
Veterans internship to mentor Protege program, VIMPP gawwd another acronym
