It’s an art more than a science to write these. Any folks in Gildre that do this type of work consistently and has a high success rate?

My wife has raised a few millions for her business through these grants. She is the CEO of a nanotech startup. Most these funds are granted to businesses doing science that is in the interest of US government (dept. of energy, defense, etc).

This includes SBIRs?

The “problem” with these grants is 1) They are very political. You are at the mercy of the administration to continue receiving payments. 2) They monitor your finances and progress rigorously.
