By: Menzies Consulting, Inc. The program focuses on helping innovators and entrepreneurs build companies that are successful in transitioning research into real world applications that meet specific market needs, and doing it profitably. “Technovation Entrepreneur (TM) is both an education program and an action plan for learning about business, understanding the requirements of running a business, and establishing a foundation for sound business decisions,” said F.O.C.U.S. (TM) Resources President Lea Strickland, MBA/CMA/CFM/ According to Strickland, startups run by the same scientific researchers who developed the new technology being commercialized focus too much organizational resources and attention on research and development of the product itself rather than overall business planning and operations. “This program helps innovators switch from a research focus to taking more of a development and market perspective and understanding the requirements of a business from day one to profitability, before it’s too late,” she said. Designed as a multi-functional, integrated business program respecting the role of research, Technovation Entrepreneur (TM) recognizes the need to translate research into products that match market need, and develop a business model that fits the technology, the market and founders. The program provides a combination of reference materials, webinars, seminars, workshops, and individual consulting through in-person, virtual, pre-recorded, and print materials. Strickland based program elements on experience gained over eight years of working with spin-outs, technology transfer companies, and garage inventors who made the transition from the lab to commercialization to a market-focused business.
