Course Summary:
The most efficient and direct form of technology commercialization is when an engineer or scientist starts his or her own business. Such high-tech startup companies are, in fact, a uniquely American phenomenon and one of our major competitive advantages.
They can serve as natural incubators for developing new technologies. Our culture, our financial infrastructure, and our government encourage us to form new enterprises.
