BSPP 2111 - COMMERCIALIZING NEW TECHNOLOGIES


Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
This course covers theory, conceptual frameworks, and tools used to formulate strategies for commercializing new technologies. The analytical frameworks cover elements of commercialization strategy that are equally critical to start-ups and to corporate technology ventures. In addition, we discuss some of the key challenges that differ for start-ups versus established firms. The primary deliverable in the course is a professional quality project which evaluates the commercialization alternatives for an emerging technology. Your project team will be paired with a local inventor, unless you prefer to evaluate a technology of special interest to your team. Experienced entrepreneurs and experts in financing new technology ventures will also address the class.
