Title: MITPortugal BioTeams Finals notes on iteams


1
MIT-Portugal Bio-Teams Finalsnotes on i-teams
  • Luis Perez-Breva, PhD
  • MIT School of engineering,
  • Sloan School of Management.
  • i-Teams Lecturer, Researcher

2
  • Everybody likes innovation until they see it
  • Ken Zolot

3
Typical situation
Technologist
  • I have a Nanobluff under the quantum carpet to
    trap bioenzymes in colors. And I hate patents
  • Glup!
  • This guys do not see how cool my nanobluff is !!!
    Do they even know how their Microwave works?
  • Sure
  • (Silence)
  • Next.
  • Technology here is too basic, Ill go to US.

4
There is a Gap
  • Let us say it is about Communication
  • Technologist vs Capital.
  • How does it work vs what is it good for.
  • Do Research and Market talk?
  • Basic research vs distant research?

5
Roll back to the 1950s, you are a researcher in
quantum physics
(Investors Panicking?, this is a laser)
6
Roll back to the 1950s you are a market research
analyst.
  • So how are we on the need for permanent
    depilation.
  • How is the vinyl market going?

(Researchers Panicking?, these might need a
laser)
7
Who asked for the LASER?
Permanent Depilation Laser Pointers CDs
DVDs Printers Surgery Diamond cutting Targeting
systems Telescopes Bar code Readers Security
systems
When Einstein first discussed quantum
populations, Was he thinking depilation?
Where should we start?
8
Can we accelerate this process?
9
The i-Teams reactoreducational experience
  • Develop go-to-market strategy from new science
    and technology
  • Goals Gain Market Focus
  • Present technology by its uses (rather than how
    it works)
  • Identify users, customers, markets a path to
    realize potential
  • Define a business model
  • Make a recommendation
  • We do not address business plans. This is a next
    step
  • Without a clear market focus, one cannot even
    begin to write a plan
  • Sometimes there is no good market recommendation
  • Student evaluation is based on the process to
    assess potential

Guide on the side
  • What is it?
  • What is it good for?
  • Who cares?
  • Who can help?
  • Is it sustainable?
  • Whats next? (startup, License, partnership,
    research, nothing?)

11
i-teams _at_ MIT
  • Put bright students together to work on MIT
    technologies.
  • Tell them it cannot be done wait.
  • Theyll find a way

12
Bio-teams _at_ MIT-Portugal
  • 6 Portuguese technologies
  • 6 challenges
  • An incredibly bright group of students

13
Help us complete their educational experience
14
Help us complete their educational experience
  • Ask them questions
  • Chat with them about their projects.

16
also
  • Join me thanking
  • Students
  • The daring faculty that have adapted i-teams
  • Isabel Rocha, Miguel Prazeres, Pedro Saraiva,
    Luis Lages
  • And all our MIT-Portugal friends.

17
The End
18
  • invite the audience to thank the students. - If
    there is a Poster session, I will invite the
    audience to approach the students and inquire the
    students more about these technologies
    emphasizing the value of networking. And that the
    opportunity of explaining this one-on-one is teh
    last step of the learning experience for these
    students.

The i-Teams reactor
  • the I-teams focus is on developing a go-to-market
    strategy for ideas emerging from new science and
    technology.
  • the goal is to identify potential markets and
    thus customers this helps define the business
    model
  • the goal is to learn how to present the
    technology by its potential uses rather than by
    how it works.. - we do that by identifying
    potential users, customers and markets and
    identifying a path in the market to realize that
    potential this helps define the business model
  • we do not address business plans as this is a
    next step. Without a clear market focus, one
    cannot even begin to write a plan
  • one of the options is there is not a good market
    such a conclusion can be a successful outcome.
    Thus, students are not judged on the size of the
    market but rather on the process that they use to
    assess the potential.
