There has got to be a better way to do R&D and technology commercialization in a globalized world. A distributed way. A low cost way. A fast way. We are all searching for better bang for the buck, faster cycles on R&D, and speed to market and crossing the valley of death for technology commercialization. Especially in energy and cleantech.

Technology Commercialization Management Program

Cleantech.org teams have extensive experience in launching startups and commercializing products as startup teams, as spinouts or new business units of major international companies, and as commercialization initiatives from R&D labs.

Cleantech.org has designed and honed an integrated fast paced technology commercialization program called Strategy by Doing that combines EIR, business development, and strategic planning to rapidly source new opportunities and technologies launch new initiatives in 90-180 days. This program has been successfully used at several private R&D labs, multiple major energy companies and multiple startups for both cross-border and new market entry, technology and R&D scouting, and technology spinoff management.
