The researcher needs to look at why someone would buy their technology. What benefit does it bring to the purchaser? What other options does a purchaser have, i.e. other technologies, performance criteria etc. What products/companies offer something similar (or an alternative) to a purchaser?

Start Date / Month: 13 / Finish Date / Month 18
Description / Background.
At stage 2, the researcher has built up a profile of how their product/technology compares to the existing products/technologies. In this phase, it is important to understand how the industry is structured and where will the research technology potentially fit. Questions which are required to be asked in this phase are – where does my technology fit – what industries, who are the users, who buys the technology, is it integrated within another product, is it stand alone? Which market segments are relevant?
Product Description Example
The research team should draw up a document which addresses D1.1, and D2.1. The document is intended for posting in the public arena (that will not disclose IP sensitive information), web sites, exhibitions, posting to potential interested parties. The exact format may be prescribed by the Institute or take the form of a Technology Capsule as in D2.3.
Month
Milestones / M2.1:Desktop market survey of end-users, overall market size / value of market, expected market share for proposed technology
M2.2: Attendance at relevant industry trade show after IP review with Institute Name Research Office/Technology Area to prevent any IP disclosures
M2.3: Attend networking events, meetings with mentors, EI HPSU team.
M2.4: Data from technical WP’s to show product has expected/desired effect. / -

Name of Institute Responsible:
WP 3 / Commercialisation WP3:Market Engagement
Start Date / Month 1 / Finish Date / Month 36
Description / Background
Active engagement with industry players – industrialists, investors, “showcase events”.
If the preferred commercialisation route is licensing, the PI and EI Commercialisation Specialist, in consultation with the Institute NameResearch Office, will develop a marketing strategy for the licensees identified in D2.2 (e.g. using the technology capsule and/or showcasing events). A 5 minute presentation or “Elevator Speech” outlining the commercial opportunity will be prepared. Professional legal advice will be sought to identify appropriate licensing deal structures for this technology.These interactions will only take place after appropriate IP protection (following engagement of patenting expertise) is in place and following advice from appropriate experts in EnterpriseIreland.
If the company formation route is being investigated, then development of a business plan outlining route to market will take place with help/advice from internal experts (in EI andInstitute Name) and external consultants if required.
