Commercialization Plan

Commercialization plans (maximum of 5 pages) are due on or before March 8, 2010.

The commercialization plan should not exceed 5-pages and will be provided to the judges in advance to help them prepare for the presentations at the event. This document is considered in the judges scoring.

Commercialization plans will explore:

  • Benefits of the product or service
  • Innovative and unique nature of the technology
  • The customers and the “pain” they are experiencing with existing solutions
  • The size of the potential market and its ability to support the product
  • Current state of the technology
  • Window of opportunity for market entry
  • Competitive advantage
  • Barriers to others entering the market, e.g. intellectual property, licensing strategies, and unique capabilities, knowledge, or qualifications
