Venture capital - supporting technological innovation
Thu 24 April 2014
Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology, Department of
Commercialization of an innovative process or product developed in a university or corporate lab can be rewarding both for the researcher doing the work and for his/her employer but someone has to judge whether it is worth commercializing and to back this with hard cash. Venture capital
funds (and the people who manage them) do precisely that and require, among others, people with expertise in the technologies in which they invest. This expertise is useful both in evaluating proposals for funding and in supporting projects already funded.
