 (or copy and paste this link to your browser: http://center.ncet2.org/index.php?option=com_joomla_lms&Itemid=53&task=details_course&id=66) This course will expose SBIR researchers and graduate students to technology commercialization best practices that are utilized to develop breakthrough innovative products. The main focus is to provide technology readiness and technology commercialization tools and metrics to effectively execute the end-to-end product delivery process. A key technology commercialization tool, for achieving best in class quality, schedule, cost and creating customer value, is the Time to Market (TTM) process. Effective TTM metrics management, TTM execution and TTM best-in-class-case studies will be presented. The course is arranged into two key technology commercialization categories: market attack planning and technology readiness/staging for commercialization. Specific TTM Topics:

Lecture Notes: The power point lectures will be posted online and they are based on 30 years practical technology commercialization experiences; and thus, they will enhance the materials in the reference text book. The lectures are organized according to the TTM process, which is slightly different order than the text book.
