Lesson 1 | Securing the Hull (IP & Licensing) | Founder’s Assessment

Do I want to be directly involved in building and running a company, or would I prefer to focus on research while a partner drives commercialization?

Do I have access to the funding, management talent and personal risk tolerance required for a start-up?

If licensing, am I prepared to give up some control over how the technology is developed and used in exchange for reduced risk and steady income potential?

Have I realistically compared the financial projections of both paths and aligned them with my personal goals?
