Discover a transformative book that equips aspiring 'researcher entrepreneurs' with invaluable strategies to avoid common start-up mistakes. Unveiling a fresh perspective, it emphasizes that technological researchers already possess critical entrepreneurial traits, merely needing the right approach to succeed. From preparing and setting up a tech start-up to illuminating best practices, this book sets you on the path to triumphant technological entrepreneurship. This essential guide tackles the paradox of start-up failures, even after a very promising start, providing insights into how to overcome internal and external problems and obstacles and secure a thriving future. Tailored for researchers aiming to commercialize their technology by setting up a start-up and for technology transfer strategists supporting academic commercialization, the book ensures clarity by avoiding jargon and employing real-life case studies and exercises.
