Description of Collaborative Activity: |
The I-Corps™ at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) program is focused on educating researchers and technologists on how to translate technologies from the lab into the marketplace. The program is designed to provide three-member project teams with access to instruction and mentoring in order to accelerate the translation of technologies currently being developed with NIH and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) funding. It is anticipated that outcomes for the I-Corps™ teams participating in this program will include significantly refined commercialization plans and well-informed pivots in their overall commercialization strategies. |
