Budget estimate

$1,000 – $1,000,000

The budget for this opportunity is difficult to estimate, as it is a virtual outreach event and not a specific contract or grant. However, based on the fact that NASA is hosting the event to encourage small businesses to partner with them, it is likely that the budget will be related to the contracts or grants that small businesses may receive as a result of attending the event. The budget could range from a few thousand dollars to several million dollars, depending on the specific opportunities that arise from the event. Factors that may influence the likely payment range include the type of research or technology being developed, the scope of the project, and the number of small businesses that attend the event and ultimately partner with NASA.
