## Summary

**Extends SBIR and STTR authorities through 2026** to keep small-business research and commercialization pilots operating. The law delays statutory deadlines and renews a suite of program authorities so ongoing SBIR/STTR activities continue for another year. - Small businesses and startups: Maintains access to SBIR and STTR program elements and commercialization support through 2026 so firms can continue pursuing Phase and pilot opportunities. - Federal agencies and program managers: Preserves authorities for tools such as Phase Flexibility, Accelerated Awards, Budget Calculation pilots, and administrative assistance through 2026 so agencies can keep running current pilots and award mechanisms. - Research and military-education institutions: Extends the STTR participation pilot and commercialization readiness pilots through 2026 so academic and military research partners can remain involved in tech transfer efforts. Preserves continuity of SBIR/STTR programs and associated pilots by extending existing statutory deadlines and authorities to 2026 without changing program structure.
