Abstract
The US Small Business Innovation Research programme has attracted private sector investment in new technology developed for anti-missile defences. From the SBIR programme within the Ballistic Missile Defence Organization small US firms have issued public stock, grown 48% in employment, and attracted a growing pool of private sector money to match the government subsidy. Other governments can subsidize firms with a little free money in ways that can lead to products in a free market without government having over-subsidized the uncompetitive.
