'Making your Research Pay'


Alasdair Gammack/Eric Gibb, SURE

Cottrell 2A87A, 2pm - 4pm

17th March 2005

 

This session will introduce the basic steps required to begin the
process of commercialisation.  Some of the issues covered will include:
-

 

*	It's my idea and therefore I'm entitled to the profit.
*	Is there a market for this research/product/service?
*	Who owns the IP (Intellectual Property)?
*	To patent or not to patent?
*	In what way(s) can the University help me?
*	Banks - who needs them?
*	I'm a scientist - not a businessperson!
*	What is a business plan anyway?
*	This product will market itself!
*	The importance of the right team!

 

Join members of the University's commercialisation arm, SURE, to find
out the answers to these questions, explore these statements and take
your first steps towards making your research pay!

 

Places are available on this session.  To book, email me or the
gradlist.
