Define the Sustainability Problem • Explain how your clean technology/environmental solution will solve an existing sustainability problem
Environmental Benefits - Qualitative • What is the primary environmental benefit from your technology? Choose one of the options below: • Clean Air • Clean Water • Clean Soil • Climate Change • How does the use of the technology result in environmental benefits? See guidance questions below: • What would happen in the absence of the proposed technology? • How does the use of the technology change the type or amount of energy consumed? • How are environmental benefits realized: • What emissions are reduced by use of the proposed technology? • How is water conserved? • How are adverse impacts to soil and water avoided? • List the key assumptions to validate the environmental benefits stated above.
Environmental Benefits - Quantitative • Environmental benefits calculations • What is the baseline technology that your solution will be displacing (status quo/ competitor’s solution, etc.)? • What unit of measure drives the realization of the environmental benefits (# of systems deployed, # of units sold, etc.)? • How many of these do you plan to sell in the next 5 years? • What is the magnitude of the environmental benefits derived from each unit of measure (kilotonnes of CO2e reduced, m3 of H2O saved, tonnes of waste reduced)? • Multiply the number of units to be sold by the estimated environmental benefit per unit.
Technology – Overview • Describe the technology. Use drawings, photos, renderings, and/or process flow diagrams as necessary.
Technology – Development and Metrics • Provide a brief history of the technology development to date. • List key performance metrics achieved to date relative to the competition.
Technology – Risks and Mitigation • Identify the technical risks to overcome to commercialize the technology:
Technology – Key Innovation • Describe the key innovation • What is the scientific basis for the technology? • How is the technology better than existing technologies and emerging competitors? • What is the strength of your IP? • How does the innovation affect the price and/or performance of your technology compared to the incumbent?
Market - Quantification • Quantify the Canadian and global market opportunity for your technology.
Market – Commercial Strategy • What is your anticipated business model? • Whatis your pathto market? • Where/who is your initial target market?
Market – Value Proposition • What is the value proposition for your customer? • What is the payback period for a customer investing in your product? How is this better than their other choices?
Market – Competitors • List direct and indirect competitors and their key strengths and weaknesses:
Project – Workplan • Key milestones, duration and key objectives to achieve during milestone:
Project – Budget • Estimated project costs:
Management Team • Who will be be actively working on the project? • Are there any key project/company advisors? • What is the project team’s relevant experience (e.g., product development, project management, commercialization and/or fundraising)?
Intellectual Property • Is the IP protected? How? Who owns the IP? • What is covered by the IP? • How difficult will it be for others to copy your idea? • What is your IP strategy to maintain a competitive advantage?
Recap Please give a brief summary of your project scope and objectives, focusing on how this project solves an industry problem. • Problem your technology solves • Project scope and objectives • How does an SDTC project advance the technology toward commercialization? • Size of market opportunity • Potential environmental benefits
Media Ready Description Provide a short description of your technology and project - not to exceed 2 paragraphs - that could be made publicly available. Typical examples can be found in the descriptions of previously funded projects, which can be found at https://www.sdtc.ca/en/projects/.
