Air Force Pitch Days submission time frame Air Force Pitch Days submission time frame Starts: 12:00 am Ends: February 16, 2019 - 11:59 pm Location: Online Description: Many mind-blowing ideas are being birthed in U.S. startup companies, but the Pentagon largely misses out on them. For our big bureaucracy, awarding a contract in months is a flash. The Pentagon must do business at the speed of ideas: inspiring and accelerating startup creativity toward national security challenges. The smaller the company, the faster we must move. We accept that challenge. Welcome to Air Force Pitch Day. Companies will have from January 8th to (8:00pm EST) on February 6th 2019 to submit proposals and pitch decks. Companies submit applications via: https://sbir.defensebusiness.org/ Air Force will notify selected companies for in-person pitches by February 15, 2019.
