What is the business case for your science? Designed for busy biomedical scientists and engineers, the CCTS Bioinnovation and Commercialization Pop-Up Course will help you answer this question. An outstanding lineup of experts from across the CCTS Partner Network as well as Georgia Tech will take attendees on a guided tour of value propositions, market potential, and the regulatory risks one needs to consider before moving scientific discoveries to the community.

Based on the Lean Startup Methodology championed by the National Science Foundation’s I-CorpsTM program, participants will learn how to develop a business case to secure funding and attract collaborators; determine the commercial viability of an innovation or discovery; and develop a new way of thinking about their research. The course also provides the opportunity to expand your network of potential partners, mentors, and collaborators.

The course will take place from noon to 3pm on Thursday, Oct. 6, at the Hubbard Center for Advanced Science in Auburn. Lunch is included. Faculty with an early-stage biomedical innovation or idea and postdocs and students working on a biomedical innovation are encouraged to attend.
