Matchmaking Service

APEX provides our matchmaking service to help those seeking partners required for STTR proposals or subcontractors to strengthen SBIR proposals. To create an anonymous listing for your organization in our public database, we need to collect information about your organization, DAF SBIR/STTR interests, and your requirements of a partner or subcontractor. After three months of inclusion in the database, you will be prompted to update or delete your information to help keep our database up to date. APEX will facilitate all requested introductions, but it is your decision whether to pursue them further. For any questions about our matchmaking service, please reach out to the APEX team on our "Contact Us" page.
